One morning, as I sat in that coffee shop with the entertainment supplement to the Seattle Times and a cappuccino, feeling quite sophisticated searching for cultural enlightenment to the tune of an espresso drink, a crew of construction workers left their concrete solidifying in the forms for the opera house foundation, crossed the street, walked past me into the cafe and congregated under the "Order Here" sign. How funny, I thought, for men in mud-encrusted boots and greasy overalls to want...

One day recently he was darting about the dingy science classroom at DuPont Manual High School in Louisville, Kentucky, like a gnome on triple espresso, questioning and wisecracking in his rapid-fire Bronx rasp as 30 ninth-grade advanced physical-science students went over results of field research. DuPont principal Beverly Keepers remembers walking in one time on Wigand, who holds a Ph.D. in endocrinology and biochemistry, to find him standing on a table juggling...
