    JK,

    Been reading the fragment of Shining Armor.

    So far I’ve noticed a problem right on Page5.
    You’ve mixed your media references
    ‘He made me feel like Poncho to his Don Quixote’

    Poncho was the sidekick of the Hispanic cowboy hero The Cisco Kid. Poncho and Cisco were a team.

    Sancho was the the first name of DonQuixote’s sidekick. Sancho Panza.

    If you’re going for comedy, a better ref is Crockett and Tubby, instead of Crockett and Tubbs (Miami Vice).

    Good catch! Figures, that’s what I get for vetting this with a lit teacher instead of just looking it up myself on Project Gutenburg. I’ll fix it.

    (My dad’s a huge Cisco Kid fan, which is probably how that got stuck in my head…)
