    I think pigs are intelligent creatures. I don’t eat meat anymore anyway, but pork would be last on my list. Not only that, but a pig valve saved my Dad’s life. I have great respect for pigs.

    Right back atcha, pig — and you, too, Mr. Pastis. Sorry about Detroit; the rest of Michigan is rather ambivalent about that city (and not too happy about Lansing, Ann Arbor, Dearborn and Hamtramk). Hope you stay out of jail down south.
