Oh you glorious book, you!

So many characters to hate [Obsequious McHissyservant, Curly Babydoll Shnookums and the Firm-minded Murdertwins], so many characters to love [Barkis is Willin' (the Linda Ronstadt version), Tommy Sweetskulls and the best of the best, my new role model, Betsey Hatesdonkeys].

Not to mention the new imperative to add to my political discourse, "Don't be galvanic, sir!"

Adored this giant book!
