I heard this on the radio last night, and of course it 
seemed just one more of those literary coincidences (having 
read M&D last month).  But what I'm curious about is how the 
guy got in front of the cheese.  Surely the point is to 
catch the cheese?  In which case, what was he doing in front 
of it?  Running too fast?
