Burning CDs

Let me make one thing perfectly
clear... As I was wearing a path in
the Lawn the other day (the specific
date is irrelevant), I noticed
many "Cavalier Dailys" marring the
beauty of this verdant landscape.
Finding these eyesores obtrusive. I
burned them all where they lay.
Granted, this only created air pollution,
but the charred patches of
Lawn created the impression of
bomb craters-which will serve as
constant reminders of the Indo-China
war. This I feel to be an
important step in the establishment
of "the best of all possible worlds".

Granted, while some will take
me seriously, others, intent upon
anarchistic terrorism, will doubtlessly
regard my observations as absurd.
Let me just say this about
that by paraphrasing Mr. Jefferson:
For here we are not afraid to
establish the truth, whatever it may
breed, so long as treason is left free
to contract it." Make no mistake
about that.

On the game of dog the farther, the
Seine, and the mouldy toast.
