Lovely,

You do write very eloquent prose. I could almost see a Red Hat in my mind’s eye. I should have flagged it when you said Bob had a BA in Modern Art and an MA in Ancient Irish Literature (insert Irish Literature joke here). It was one of those over-the-top, too cliched descriptions to be true. But I’m quite amused, nonetheless.

Jane, satire is the one of the highest forms of writing and under-appreciated here in the States. When done right, satire should leave the reader with just a hint that something’s amiss. The fact that Lovely “got” some of us is a testament to “her” abilities. I tip my hat.
