You haven't read _The Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove_ (or any book by
Christopher Moore) yet, have you?

Just to let you know Larry, I did read a few pages of this book at
Amazon.com.
The author seemed to make effective and interesting use of imagery,

They just get better and better as the pages progress, too.


clearly distinguishing the book from those in the "pulp fiction" category.

...or the Trash Romance category.


Well, Lust Lizard sounds pretty, errr, romantic...

For the record, lust isn't romantic, it's primal.

I was using a euphemism ("the substitution of a mild, indirect, or vague
expression for one thought to be offensive, harsh, or blunt").
I just looked it up to double-check! ; )

Go for the gusto!
Hump that gasoline truck! (Oops, mustn't let out secrets.)

Oh no! The lizard may have escaped!!!



ready to find out yet what it is doing in Melancholy Cove. It must
really be something special though because the author has alot of titles
to his name!

Like Native American myths/stories? Read _Coyote Blue_, too.
Just don't read Moore's books in public, unless you can handle the
stares when you burst out laughing, wherever you happen to be.


Me, I struggle to write a lot as a single word...

I can't imagine our Bill obsessing over any little thing. I really
can't.

Me? You should see the Bill from the A/C guy who soldered a
pinhole-leak for me last month! I don't need to make this stuff up...

BTW, I go as 'Bill' so that I blend in anonymously sort of like a
chameleon. Don't blow my cover, or I'll change my name to Gill or
something else I can remember. Do you remember the movie which featured
the real Gill?
