Isn't it bizarre? I feel like one of the Angels. Charlie, are you there? I was always partial to Sabrina, but that was back in the Kate Jackson days. I don't know -- do they have new names now to go with their new kickboxing identities?

I'm still digesting the Dickens. I have always thought that Dickensian would be a wonderful adjective to have applied to one. As a person, that is -- probably less so as a writer, though I may shift my opinions after reading your selections.

I'm going to go search the friends we have in common and see if I can plumb this mystery.
