Before I head off to bed, I thought I would contribute one more top level comment and a topic for discussion:
Have you seen the film The Princess Bride? A friend of mine introduced me to it a few years back, and I loved it in all its rather silly glory. Then this summer I found out that there was actually a book as well; indeed the book came before the film. So I bought the book (and the film) and now I have just 33 pages left of the first chapter of the fictional sequel, that is appended at the end of my edition of the book. (If you haven't read the book or seen the film, that comment will probably make absolutely no sense what-so-ever, in which case I would like to apologise in advance. On the other hand, if you haven't I have just given you a suggestion for an interesting read and/or watch, so hopefully that makes up for it!)
