Humorous. I had a field day trying to imagine what they were trying to do. Very enjoyable. I’ve just one complaint, it’s too short, but then all good things are. [1]

It;s so like Jim to forget to check who the book was printed for. XD This was so funny. I love it when poor Bones gets stuck helping them out of their messes. [2]
