Nature versus nurture was also a favourite theme with Mark Twain.

I've tended to like the non-Jeeves Wodehouse better than the Jeeves Wodehouse (heresy, I know), so I should definitely give If I Were You a go.Jenny @ Reading the Endhttp://readingtheend.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1203893324932668537.post-55206365626171678732014-04-17T06:20:37.924-05:002014-04-17T06:20:37.924-05:00You too, vicki!
