...summer, in Cambridge, I thought I'd make jewelry for money. I discovered that it took, say, four hours to make a pair of earrings. But a retailer wouldn't be able to ask more than six dollars for the pair. Which meant I would get three. I gave up the business. The alternative was to make the same thing over and over. which would have been efficient but boring.

HUMOROUS objects in both buildings fell into two categories: works of visual humor and three-dimensional drawings of literary witticisms.

"Dazed and Confused" deals with incoherent man in the face of a latter-day Cressida. After a sufficiently stunned introduction...
