Howdy. We've moved from Cayce, but St. Elizabeth of South Rose Hill or Lizette de Waccamaw de Sud just don't do it for me.

Literary Murder Triva

So, Izzy and I are watching CSI, as our crime fighters (shouldn't they just be in the lab?) are de-bricking a chimney. Poe's "The Tell-Tale Heart" had been mentioned earlier, and I commented as I realized there was a body behind the wall: "It really is 'The Telltale Heart.' "

Izzy immediately let me know that "The Tell-Tale Heart" was about a body in the floorboards and that what Iwas recalling was "The Cask of Amontillado."

On cue, the CSIs have the exact same conversation.

All this whilst grading papers--that boy is good!
