1. "Jasper didn't take my advice; it was a duplicate of the other one.  What Jasper did do was camp out overnight in his office for about a week with a .22 loaded with birdshot, waiting for me to show.  But I've learned patience.  He's tucked away at home in hown bed tonight, visions of beating me to death with a blunt instrument dancing in his head.  In about five minutes I'm going down to the station to get the hammer."

I picked this passage because it shows the commitment and humor Louie puts into standing up for what he believes in.
