Apparently, I shouldn't read Max Gladstone before I go to bed. My dreams were all about contracts, gods, conspiracies...
I did sleep well despite that, though, and I enjoyed Full Fathom Five.

From a conversation about forming The Church of the Divine Bacon

"Bacon is born from belly, and to belly it returns."
"If you have never had home made bacon, it is an effing miracle unto itself."
"Where does the Church of the Divine Bacon stand on its Protestant cousins such as guanciale, back bacon, pancetta, and so forth?"
"There is room on the church for our cousins for truth is found by many routes and revelation may be found in even the simplest pork products."
"Indeed and though humble it is in such humbleness that glory exists. Guanciale and pancetta can be discussed among theologians who enjoy the deeper mysteries."
"And what is the official statement regarding the co-mingling of bacon with other, less enlightened, ones such as water chestnuts and lettuce and tomato?"
"As the angels adore the Divine yet are not divine in their own right, so lettuce and tomato support the heavenly state of Bacon."
"Bacon does not judge. Bacon is welcoming. Bacon is accepting."
"Bacon first cures itself, then Bacon cures all else."
