If you are looking for a good read, take a chance on Thackeray's Vanity
Fair. There's a character in that book, Rawdon Crawley, who reminds me
of Herring and "Reggie."


Pretty sad if reading a good piece of literature makes you think of NG
characters.

There's nothing unusual about recalling the "attributes" of characters in
literature and applying them to actual people you might encounter. There
are several posters here who exhibit some of the worst attributes of
Dickens' villains.


As an example, "Reggie" reminds me most of Dickens' Uriah Heep from David
Copperfield.


A brief descriptor from Wiki:


"The character is notable for his cloying humility, obsequiousness, and
general insincerity."


Reggie.


Funny you should be on this track...
Wife & I just stopped in for a quick bite after returning from a downtown
camera store.



Did you pick up some 120?

D'oh! I was so worked up trying to decide on what to buy (compact vs DSLR
and what brand/model) that I forget all about the 120 film.
I'll get back down there soon.

I'm no one to talk, but it looks to me like in the sentance, "forget"
is still acceptable.
