(Obsequiousness??) Interesting thought, Jeeves as a model for service to the master! Whoever suggested reading Jeeves to Bevan had quite a sense of humor, on several levels. > Or was he looking for tips on how to be even more obsequiess. Maybe. Or perhaps, from the Wikipedia entry on Jeeves: "Jeeves is a member of the Junior Ganymede Club, a club for butlers and valets, in whose club book all members must write down all the wrongdoings of their employers. Thus, butlers and valets can be forewarned before taking up employment with the more infamous employers mentioned in the club book. The section labelled 'WOOSTER B', the largest in the book, contains 18 pages. However, in the book Much Obliged, Jeeves, Jeeves reveals to Bertie that he has destroyed the now nineteen pages in the club book since he anticipates that he will never leave the latter's employment, thus obviating the need to inform prospective valets about his employer's quirks." I've only read a couple of the books. I wonder whether Bevan was reading "Jeeves and the Impending Doom" or "Jeeves and the Love That Purifies"...
