"A little wicked wicket gate..." Perfect. (I thought I posted this earlier today, so if it shows up twice, just consider it an echo).

One wonders if the "wizened warder" might have been a little less corruptible if his terms of employment had been a bit more generous...

[bobnorwal]

[paulpellicci]

...how little things change...

[pattyfromtoledo]
