Trey, I might have had to punch you in the face for RANDOMLY referencing Britney Spears in the tags, but since you have amazed me once more, I opt not to.

For the sake of our devoted readers (I continue to delude myself that there is a plural in all of this), I shall recount our recent conversation:

G: Trey, give me a historical event in 1856.

:interlude while Trey thinks:

T: Piedmont-Savoy went to war with Austria with the aid of France.

I've never even heard of Piedmont-Sav--------------

IMPORTANT NEWS BULLITEN!

Trey was completely incorrect. The place was Sardinia, and it happened in 1859. Sorry, Trey, no brownie points for you. However, you do get minimal points for even having heard of Piedmont-Savoy, which I sure hadn't.

(I was trying really hard to pay homage to you in this post, too. I mean, last time we played the Gracey-names-a-year-and-Trey-names-a-historical-even Game, you pwned. Yes, pwned.)

Anyway, I'm reading Pride and Prejudice (just past L's elopement, for anyone who's read the book/knows the story) and even though I've read it before, I really want to read some more.

I'll probably put up a more comprehensive post in the near future. Of course, I imagine that you might want to yell at me for making your disgrace public.

I really do love you dearly, though.

:smiles widely:

Love,

Gracey
