...devouring sexual appetite, considering his spouse an object at his complete, total and permanent disposal." Judge Chesnelong said that Ismaëls conduct ran "from tenderness to the most refined bestiality. He could not pass near his spouse without trying to caress or kiss her, or to lift her skirt with a view to touching her. Several times a day he pursued her with assiduity, covering her with kisses on her entire body. And these aphrodisiac acts seemed the most natural thing in the world to him. Mme. Franconville justly called him a satyr...
...academic standards of its time, the figure of Annette on the Beach at Villerville (1910) is a botch-drawn as though made of string and plasticine, the skirt rendered in weird and only semilegible notations of white paint. Yet Vuillard caught with tender and ironic precision the way that people actually stand when they are not observed-along with the scoured blue of the Atlantic sky and the distant, promenading couples. It is like an amateur snapshot. Vuillard was, in fact, one of the first artists to use a Kodak systematically. It was his habit to set up his camera...

The boy is Al Banghart, a canny, easygoing Chicago skirt chaser and lowbrow who once flunked her high school French course. Besides being fond of Miss Piano, Al believes in her career. When they marry, he quits his nowhere job in the hat factory to keep house...
...trip. But there are a few rules to follow, and here is a selection: 1) Forget deadlines; you'll never make them. 2) Girls will always get rides more easily than boys-but not in jeans; wear a skirt. 3) Never leave the operations area for a minute, because the moment you depart a ride always seems to turn up. I missed two flights that way, one direct to Los Angeles. 4) Make friends with everyone-the ground crewmen always know where a ride might be found. 5) Bring cotton or earplugs-my ears still ring from jet noises...
