Thanks for your book-report, Stan, updating me on my own posts. You
don't seem to have missed anything crucial.

I'd love to oblige, of course, and post according to your, rather than
my own, whim. But I feel in this case a lesson is needed: you can't
always get what you want. 

Besides which, the "pumpkin pieties" line was too good to wait until
next November. Nothing stands in the way of a good gag, Stan. Nothing.

Not that you'd grasp that.
