...seven weeks last spring, 350,000 heat-retaining Carmen Curler sets were airlifted to New York on rush order from the U.S. beauty firm, Clairol. Labeled "Carmen" or "Kindness" and marketed by Clairol, nearly a million of the Danish-made curlers have already been snatched up by American women, for prices ranging from $13 to $40 a set.

The pedantic sadist is Colonel Sun of the People's Liberation Army of China, who wants to blow up some Russians and then blame the incident...
...scientists and economists. His book Generation of Vipers, written in a mood of "ribaldry and rage," became a famous bestseller. True, it did not inspire street riots or start campus revolutions, but at least it gave aid and comfort to thousands of as yet un-Freudianized young men and women who wanted to reject their mothers...
