Dave is one of my favorite writers, and this is one of my favorite stories. I love stories that snark about the whole "fate" and "destiny" thing, I thought the use of twins was inspired, and the birds and the fish are hilarious. Structurally, I love the short, numbered sections -- they make for a fast-moving read (or listen), and create a sort of collage effect, where the true scope of the story becomes apparent only when you step back and consider it as a whole. Lovely stuff.
