Default O/T - discovered: the first literary reference to the TT?

There's a scene in the latest Jonathan Carroll novel, called "The Wooden Sea" (published earlier this year), where a character stands on the roof of a "shiny, black Audi TT". It's a very funny scene 'cause the two guys are being chased by a formerly dead, three and a half-legged dog. If you haven't read Carroll's stuff you should. And now even more reason--good taste in cars...

Default Not sure the roof of a "shiny, black Audi TT" would support someone's weight... ;-)

At the very least you'd need to re-Zaino afterwards...

yeah, the author points out that the owner wasn't going to be too happy with the guy...

What's wrong with a 3 (and a half) legged dog? You say it like it bothers you... :-)
