6. Funny you should ask, my dear Aristus.....
I was just thinking about that!

And, alas, no, I haven't yet......

8. Hmm. I have no idea. But your local library should have a copy.
And you can always order a copy fairly cheaply from Alibris.com. It's worth buying. I never get tired of reading it.

5. great....

13. Ain't it, though?
I thought of having the "No amnety" woman in there, too, but opted for simplicity.

12. Kick
Completely off topic, but I love this quote. Its funny if you're familiar with Tallulah.

"I read Shakespeare and the Bible, and I can shoot dice. That's what I call a liberal education."
Tallulah Bankhead
