The scene where Vimes meets the dwarves that tried to kill his family, in the underground mine. Vimes had been ratehr beat up and wasn't in the most sober state of mind. He starts quoting "Where's My Cow?"

This scene makes me think of Vimes everytime I see the main actor from "There Will be Blood"

On a side note, does anyone have the quote form the same book i believe, about dwarves and religion? The one where it ends... "... and when you hit your thumb with a 12 pound hammer, it's really good to be able to blaspheme."

Chiming in to say Feet of Clay was the book that got me back into Discworld. One of my favorite scenes with Sgt. Colon is in that book, where he's hanging onto a ledge for dear life:


Corporal Buggy Swires: It's all about being the right size really. I mean a mouse could fall that far and only be stunned. I could survive with a few cuts and bruises. You'll make a big mess, And I imagine an elephant would...

Sergeant Fred Colon: Oh gods! :cry:

Same dates as PAX, arrgh



Actually, I've gotten so much joy from all his books, TP can write about whatever he wants as far as I'm concerned. If he wants to spend his last lucid days writing non-fiction about bird watching I'll never complain,
