...just out of the picture. "Let that one go," says one. "He says he don't wanna be mah equal." He treats the space race between Russia and the U.S. with barbell scorn: a monkey up a tree demands of its space-suited companion back from a quick zip through the firmament, "Where the hell have you been?"
