Interesting that Naruto picked up the habit of peeping from Jiraiya. And yet he thought Jiraiya's book was boring - or maybe he just said that to annoy Jiraiya, or show how grown up he was... Or, you know, Jiraiya writes boring porn... or there's too much romance in the book. Wonder which it is (Yes, this interests me more than the current obliquely search for Sasuke plot.)

*cracks up* I really have to get back to reading the manga -- I've been letting it slide since about chapter 270, and it sounds like actual stuff has happened. I mean, new characters, new village, slashy subtext? Hmmm...
