While I'm doing my Yoga....sorry I was in Mr. Harland's
position--looking at the world inverted and trying to type with my toes
and you know how my grammar and spelling drives MalignD crayyyzeee. Bad
enough when I do it with my carpenter's mitts. 

It's easy enough to get him to comment on the duck,  if you know how to
go about it.

 I know that if I wait till the party has moved uptown and we are into
the next
chapter and I circle back, Robert will play a little pin the tail of the
donkey. 

Still a bit of a jibe and jibe there, but nothing nasty or dismissive. 

In terms of the exclusive middle here, I'm not sure who they are. 
In the end, whatever you post you write for yourself. If I don't want to
post about the Jesuits in M&D, I can't blame Morris. Can I?
