I was not at all surprised at the brilliance of Amanda Carpenter's essay. I always find myself singing her praises to Scooter as I read her work out loud to him.

However, that JVL actually received the same encomiums from me today caused Scooter to look up in dubious head-tilt and reluctant tail-wag.

Needless to say, I assured him that JVL's essay was indeed absolutely brilliant, too, and we should never, ever doubt his perspicacity, wit, and elegant style again. (However, I did have to explain "edging" to Scooter.)
