...time; unlike the ordinary Congressman, with his Tuesday-Thursday work week, congressional leaders put in long hours on the Hill and are grateful for a little solitude. Mike Mansfield is an example. "He leaves for the Senate at 6:30 every morning, and he stays till he puts the cat out," says his wife. "We don't have any kind of weekend or country place because we'd never have time...
...have always had dozens of robins on this lawn and other dozens on the lawns between here and home. This year four showed up on this lawn, two on the lawns between here and home. A cat got one of the four and now a third has disappeared. The lovely mountain bluebird nested everywhere in this town and the surrounding hamlets and farms.

The very fact that Carew gets on base so often has helped Killebrew pile...
...perspective of good health and at the distance of art Mayer still confronts the horror obliquely--through understatement, burlesque, and nonchalance. But do not be misled by these devices into doubting the seriousness of Mayer's purpose. The wail of fear drones in the songs (some of which, like "Cat Scratch Fever," recur in his shows as anthems), in the abruptness of the pacing and in the roller-coaster whirling of the stage machinery. In Job as in Jesus the references, the allusions, the modulations of mood may be too rapid--the whole production too visually and verbally dense...
