Oh, dear! The tap-tap-tap of it all. Call Me Wesley is experimenting with his manual typewriter.
And, tragically, he has discovered my stock of laid linen paper and reporter's notebooks. Bonus points, I guess, to anyone who can tell me what the hell this tap-tap-tap-ishness is all about. :eyes:

8. My studio is small so I expect you know where it is.
Stay away from the right-hand drawer in the credenza on the south wall and don't touch anything marked "Mazzoni, Locarno." I mean it!!!! Skin oil on handmade paper is the mark of Satan!111! (I mean it!!! Don't touch teh Amalfi!!! If you do, I'll KNOW!)

7. To be dominated
by Ginger and me is not as bad for human pride as to be dominated by others of your species.

Just sayin'! ;)

20. Could be worse
If the "tap, tap, tap" were tap shoes, he changed his name to Fred and he and Ginger were practicing for a dance competition...
