Now you're making me smile, and I'm at work! My own favorite part is when he explains how to boil water, the important thing being not to watch it and to pretend you're not waiting for it to boil

Very true! It annoys me very much when authors don't leave any room to my imagination (that's one of the reasons I sent The Davinci Code back to Amazon after reading about 5 pages), but sometimes I forget to appreciate it when they do. It does play an important role in my enjoyment of the book though.
