I'm worrying about my college essays again. I think I should rewrite them. Except I already turned in the applications. Ack. I just wrote four pages on Donne in half an hour, in the largest handwriting I could dredge up, which will probably be illegible to the prof anyway. I want to borrow Mao's muse. I want to borrow anyone's muse, if they happen to have a spare one lying around. I wonder, does amazon.com carry anything of use in that department?

Dorothy Parker time, folks. She's good for commiseration.

Razors pain you;

Rivers are damp;

Acids stain you;

And drugs cause cramp.

Guns aren’t lawful;

Nooses give;

Gas smells awful;

You might as well live.
