That's cool, but Way's point is that we need people to pledge to kick in cash for the cottage rental. We don't have a freebie any more because Jenn's not coming.

The original Princess Bride, the long, long one that they abridged, and made into a movie. Reminiscent of the movie, but obscure due to the movie's popularity in the abridged format.

William Goldman's "good parts" abridgement of the S. Morgenstern classic The Princess Bride would be a popular choices with Watchers. The movie version was the feature film shown at danlo's after the dinner with SRD during the 2007 Elohimfest and remains a frequently quoted work.

The original S. Morgenstern book is a bit too obscure, since it never actually existed.

TPB is also the background behind a 2007 E'fest video, "Papal Bulls."
