   Kant, A133, B173, n. refers to the Second Letter of Peter in   
   the New Testament, without quoting it explicitly: “The dog   
   goes back to its own vomit, and as soon as the sow has been   
   washed, it wallows in the mud.” The New Jerusalem Bible,   
   Garden City, New York: Doubleday, 1985, 2009.   
      
   I have often accused Jigme of hiding under Evelyn's skirt.   
   I have myself hidden under her skirt to proclaim exemplary   
   norms and standards of behaviour on Usenet, and also in   
   real life in the meat world. She articulates them with dead   
   precision. Of course I also claimed often to apply them back   
   to her.   
      
   If I had money, I would hire you to follow me around to point   
   out my faults and errors to me. The rest of the time, it would   
   still be my plain-Jane me.
