Dan'l, since you would include "Three Fingers" in your ideal BoW  
collection, could you elaborate on why? It seemed less impressive to  
me than most others in TIoDDaOSaOS, which obviously means I'm Not  
Getting It...

Actually, I doubt that you're NGI; it's a simple tale that I personally find
quite chilling.

I once absend-mindedly ordered Three Mile Island dressing in a restaurant
and, with great presence of mind, they brought Thousand Island Dressing and
a bottle of chili sauce. -- T. Pratchett

I've always loved this story as well. Perhaps because it's relatively 
simple, it's extremely memorable.
