Which is funny (to me) because once, decades ago, a friend and I spent two days trying to remember the name of Suzanne Pleshette's character on The Bob Newhart Show, and then finally, at breakfast, thinking about something else, I simply glanced up and said "Emily."

This is just about the only way I can remember some things that I know I know-- stop trying and let it flow to me.

I don’t know if you have read (or seen) it, so don’t want to spoil it, despite it being what, 15 years old or something. Anyway: you probably know the setup: hipster couple leaves Brooklyn for the Midwest, retreating to her hometown of: New Carthage, Missouri. It has to be an homage, right?

It’s hard to think how it couldn’t be intentional!

Benjamin, I *yelped* in the A train. It’s how I figured out the twist far in advance. Sad sad sad.
