This is just a little light humor between Jo, me, and cross thread reference exchangers regarding some fun we had last night (depending upon your time zone) on the "Damp Squib" thread. What I theorized about Faulkner is completely untrue. I repeat: a big lie. Faulkner never wrote (that I'm aware of) a novel entitled As Hamlet Lay Dying. The thread is worth reading if you're interested in learning about:

squibs
squids
dampness
explosives
Shakespeare
Faulkner
the military
the nature of human discourse

Book regards,
