Tam, you're the only person I know besides me that owns a copy of A Mencken Chrestomathy, and I've got a complete collection of the works of P.J., but I still don't sculpt sentences like you do.
Better be sure the animal experimentation guidelines allow Mencking rats first, or you could wind up in trouble.

Hey, swallow too much Mencken, King, and O'Rourke, and that's what comes back up. ;)

I took the Chrestomathy out of the library, and I sometimes wear P.J.s, and I don't remember anyone ever praising my wordcrafting.
Apparently I need the Mencken. I've already read everything by the other two.
Then my writing will rule the world!
LabRat neads Mencken'. Somebody go and Menck LabRat.
