I just checked -- it's in chapter 11. I can say no more.<BR/><BR/>(CdS book order was, foolishly, Amazon-linked to two books due to be published next month.

Someone told me they sorta made fun of that name behind the scenes - as in "I feel an episode coming on" or "I think I'm gonna have an episode" Petey TOTALLY embodies that wine. HE shoulda been on the label. I came here to leave a comment about him and then matthew summed it up so perfectly I laughed out loud at work and it's the guv'ment and no one laughs here. I'm getting odd looks... I think I'M beginning to have an episode...Shansterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04397551985965117012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346830305687186778.post-44078267228560080822008-09-08T14:45:00.000-07:002008-09-08T14:45:00.000-07:00Petey appears to be having some sort of episode in...Petey appears to be having some sort of episode in that last panel.Viceroy Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01101012989229947500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346830305687186778.post-51360906565633455072008-09-08T09:53:00.000-07:002008-09-08T09:53:00.000-07:00you're saying it's in the book? then i shall not ...you're saying it's in the book? then i shall not read it yet. not until i have the rest of the book to go with it, that is. yes, it's hard to... restrain myself this way but... urgh... i think... i will.. argh... survive...david thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14397271157267666988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346830305687186778.post-24496536392860300572008-09-08T07:32:00.000-07:002008-09-08T07:32:00.000-07:00On the subject of "uptalk", you should read this: ...On the subject of "uptalk", you should read this: http://languagelog.ldc.upenn.edu/nll/?p=568Theophylacthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15269723193638517569noreply@blogger.com
