“‘Eddie, how long have we been father and son?’
‘As long as I can remember.’
‘Exactly. Now, remember: Best behavior, and keep your wits about you. The towns in the Outer Fringes sometimes interpret the Rulebook a bit differently than we might be used to, and are awash with the potential for embarrassing faux pas.’”
-p. 36 of Jasper Fforde’s Shades of Grey
