Complete lie on my part, I have not read the Bible twice or TGOW twice, though I have read plenty of Steinbeck twice. Honestly, I was a good 10 drinks deep, and I can't believe I didn't make a typo. Usually I make typos sober, so this is just blowing my mind; I think being drunk made me slow down or something -- but also lie, which is probably a consequence of getting drunk and lying to girls. My brain is just so used to it.
