...ShELL OIL (the floating decimal separates the words). Faced with a parking ticket, the calculator owner can come up with Oh hELLS BELLS. To greet a friend, you divide 98 by 7 to get hl. A greater challenge is to ask friends what a golf duffer and the movie Casablanca have in common. If you punch 2572, add 87 and multiply by 12, and then hold the machine upside down, it will spell BOGIE...

...PLACE to consider becoming a regular at is the Club Casablanca, located in the Brattle Theater complex. Divided into an upstairs (where many, many Harvard Sperry topsider-types hang out with their junior college girlfriends and others) and a downstairs (where older people listen to music), the CasaB appeals to two different groups of people, if not to all types.

In my innocence, I did not know such a thing was possible, but this drink was pretty pathetic. I nursed the alcohol along for a good five minutes (quite an accomplishment) but it took me another half an hour to finish...

Eternal Womanhood. Why? That is part of the conundrum of the title, and it remains something of a mystery to the end. Like most transsexuals, Morris was never a homosexual or a transvestite. The book convincingly insists that the road to Casablanca was not taken in the pursuit of sexual gratification. It was simply that during the whole of a successful life as a schoolboy, soldier and father-in short, as a male-Morris was tormented by the growing realization that his gender, his inner self, his center of being, his very soul, was feminine.
