@Marypipe: Klasse Klappentext! Ich werde demnächst den ersten Bartimäus lesen und mal schauen, ob mir der zusagt. Wenn ja, bin ich natürlich bei der Leserunde zu Teil 2 dabei.
Einen tollen Papa hast du wirklich!
@Kati:
der Wüstenplanet verdient wirklich die Bezeichnung Klassiker.
@alle:
hier ist es so kalt, dass ich mir gerade meine Wärmflasche gefüllt habe, und mich gleich mit eben dieser in meine Wolldecke einkuscheln werde.
Eben habe ich die wunderbare Stelle mit dem that that- und had had-Problem gelesen, die Sinus Diabolicus zum Glück schon mal abgetippt hat, was mir viel Arbeit erspart:
Zitat:
'Good. Item seven. The
had had and
that that problem.
[...]
'So what's the problem in Progress?'
'That that had
that that ten times but had
had had only thrice. Increased
had had usage had had to be overlooked but not if the number exceed that
that that usage.
'Hmmm,' said the Bellman. 'I thought
had had had had TGC's approval for use in Dickens? Whats's the problem?'
'Take the first
had had and
that that in the book by way of example. [...] You would have thought that that first
had had had had good occasion to be seen as
had, had you not?
Had had had approval but
had had had not; equally it is true to say that that
that that had had approval but that that other
that that had not.'
'So the problem with that other
that that was that--?'
'That that other-other
that that had had approval.'
'Okay,' said the Bellman, whose head was in danger of falling apart like a chocolat orange, 'let me get this straight:
David Copperfield, unlike
Pilgrim's Progress, which had had
had, had had
had had.
Had had had had TGC's approval?'
There was a very long Pause.
