’Twas brillig. It had been that way all day, and it wasn’t getting any cooler. I had loosened my neck-tie so many times that the knot had worked its way down to my navel. Outside in the street, the first lights had come on and the slithy toves were doing whatever they do in the wabe. Some days they gyre, some days they gimble. It’s no skin off my nose, but I wish they’d make their minds up, then we could all rest easy.

Meh. It's just not Jabberwocky unless Marlowe's vorpal sword goes snicker snatch. Heck, I'd settle for his vorpal gat going snicker snatch. Something has to go snicker snatch!
