...prepared to skin it-but rather it was about the disoriented, pleasantly confused sensation that a knockdown blow begets, the same sort of crackbrained feeling that certain cranks, eccentrics, free spirits, if you will, can induce in any listener who truly tries to follow. Listening to Bob Windsor, another North Carolinian, has a lot in common with being hit on the head with...
...Windsor is a very large man who publishes a newspaper in Chapel Hill with the assistance of a dwarf, whom Windsor calls his bodyguard. The newspaper is called the Landmark, and it is published higgledy-piggledy. Sometimes it is a weekly, and sometimes it is a biweekly, and sometimes it is just, well, tardy.

Diana was supposed to be there taking riding lessons (family tradition suggests that a Windsor Queen should be able to ride, but the Princess, who fell from a horse when she was small, has no love for the sport). Carraro's information was accurate. After dodging hordes of amateur cameramen and the police, and being scared silly by the Queen's pack of search dogs...
