"I'm a mom, and I play one on TV, which makes me a real authority. So if you know what's good for you, you'll buy this very, very good book. Because I say so! And you are not getting another copy of Hometown Pasadena if you leave this one lying around on the floor, buster! I mean it!"
-- Jane Kaczmarek, the Pasadena resident also known as Lois on TV's Malcolm in the Middle
