Otter never really tried to read Wallace, in fact.

I find him easier to listen to via audio books. The beauty of his prose and sentences comes through.

edutcher કહ્યું...

Otters have a lot of fun in the water, so it probably doesn't read.

madAsHell કહ્યું...

How do you find this stuff?

No...wait, I should ask, how do you find TIME to find this stuff?

Saint Croix કહ્યું...

Actually, this corgi thinks you're doing just fine. Because screw those other guys. "Keep up the great work," says this corgi, "I'm proud of you!"

Dogs are awesome. Get a dog, Althouse!

Penny કહ્યું...

Queen Elizabeth knew just what she was doing... breeding all those Corgis.

Ann Althouse કહ્યું...

How did I find that? Just going to one thing and noting those other links in the margin.

Astro કહ્યું...

That's why I have a Corgi.
No pigeons, there, huh? No doubt plotting in secrecy, while trying to avoid those reactionary zebras.

traditionalguy કહ્યું...

That was so good that I am still laughing and crying.

Maybe some people do get reincarnated into animals. I remembere several of those animals from when they were in human bodies.

I need some more corgis @32 and less cats @ 33 these days.

Penny કહ્યું...

Big lick and a tail wag for tradguy!

Penny કહ્યું...

Not a corgi, but sure was fun pretending.

Feeling better, tg?

Penny કહ્યું...

Deborah said, "Fox paws and lady parts. This is a very poetic thread."

She didn't say it here, but she did say it!

Either one political post up or one political post down, not sure which anymore.

Penny કહ્યું...

Sure hope deborah doesn't mind that I quoted her here instead of there?

Yeah, it's out of context now, but?

She WAS talking about animals, and so were we!

David કહ્યું...

It's a shaggy dog story!

The Corgi made it all better.

Penny કહ્યું...

You betcha!

Penny કહ્યું...

Know who else said that?

"You betcha!"

Ha ha Groucho Marx, for cripes sake.

"You betcha life".

Craig કહ્યું...

My otter wants me to finish Anathem and Reamde.

Patrick કહ્યું...

This Honey Badger doesn't give a shit.

lemondog કહ્યું...

Think they might have been disappointed in us ?

Rusty કહ્યું...

This human thinks the human that thought that shit was cute should be beaten with a 2x4.

Petunia કહ્યું...

Indignant starfish wonders why you got home so late last night.

Lem Vibe Bandit કહ્યું...

I didn't finish Infinite Jest.

I impulsively bought it after reading about his death here.

and imperceptibly stopped reading it around page 100? cant remember exactly.

Sigivald કહ્યું...

The Otter would be more disappointed to know I've never given a damn about Wallace or any of his books.
