I hope someday when I grow up (:P) I will get all of the humor in
these books. I love the pun, thanks for being bright enough to pick
it up and generous enough to share it with those of us who only heard
it wizzing swiftly over our heads (at least I hope I'm not the only
one who totally missed it!) It is almost as good as the
whole "punting" thing!
