Joanna : As you know, I believe that computers make work rather than alleviate it. But I agreed to install one in the office on a trial basis because...
Max : It came in an elegant black.
Joanna : Because, Hugh discovered that people, I don't know who these people are or why they don't have more important things to do with their lives, but people have been publishing whole Salinger stories on their personal e-webs.
Hugh : Web blogs.
Joanna : Web blogs, ridiculous. This is blatant copyright infringement. And we're going to have to scour the worldwide web to put an end to it. And that is *all* the computer is to be used for.
Daniel : Sorry to interrupt. Just passing through. Don't mean to cause a fuss.
Joanna : We can turn it off now.
Max : Uh, it's already off.
Joanna : Okay, good. And then maybe the little coat that goes over it, I've seen it in pictures. Thank you, Max.

Joanna : So Salinger doesn't get any of his mail?
Hugh : Not one. You shred them in the shredder.
Margaret : You should always read them.
Hugh : Yes, indeed.
Margaret : Just in case.
Hugh : Just in case.
Joanna : In case of what?
Margaret : We've been extra careful since the Mark David Chapman thing.
Hugh : John Lennon's assassin. When the police arrived at the Dakota, they found Chapman calmly sitting on the sidewalk reading, "Catcher In The Rye".
