 		The Quote on the Paperweight
Here's something else in reference to the quote - don't know if it's important but is interesting.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
What Alice "ca'n't believe" is that the White Queen is One hundred and one, five months and a day.

What I think is interesting is that if you add up all of the dominoes thus far, you get 152.

If you add up the number of days in the first five months of the year (Jan-May), you get 151 days.

Add one day and you get 152.

How does the 101 years (36865 days) fit in? I don't know

My only thought is that this, if not a coincidence, could help us figure out which dominos are coming next.

 		And therein lies the question:
What's with the dominoes in the first place?
I am SO in this.

Could it possible be something from the book.. Maybe something the rabbit said to alice or something?

Edit---

Or could it be saying just Stay out of the way! llike a warning from soneone?

I checked the book, and as I suspected, the phrase does not show up. It is clearly something one of the characters is telling us. And I don't think it is something kind. Sad

 		Typo in the 4th paragraph of Prologue 8: "…seems to there" should be "…seems to be there"

 		The bishop is from chess. The first book involves playing cards, through the looking glass involves chess pieces. If I recall correctly.
