Talk about it

"I can't talk about it."

"Talk about what?"


"I can't even talk about what I can't talk about!"


"If I didn't know you better I'd think this is a comedy routine."


"You know it isn't, I barely emerged out of this with superficial wounds."


"Why can't you talk about it?"


"Confidentiality rules, and all."


"Who'll know?


"Well, I think the lawyer involved in the case may be watching."


"Watching what?"


"This very blog."


"Can you say anything at all?"


"Cherchez la femme."


"Ah yes, Alexandre Dumas (père) in
Les Mohicans de Paris, 1864:

"Ah! Monsieur Jackal, you were right when you said, 'Seek the woman.'"

"No, no, that's not the way I heard it:

"There is a woman in every case; as soon as they bring me a report,

I say, 'Look for the woman'."
