Laura! Interesting analogy. An example of the randomosity from chapter six: 'And Billy worked his hands in his muff as he marched. His fingertips, working there in the hot darkness of the muff, wanted to know what the two lumps in the lining of the little impresario's were. The fingertips got inside the lining. They palpated the lumps, the pea-shaped thing and the horseshoe-shaped thing. The parade had to halt by a busy corner. The traffic light was red. M: I totally remember that quote from the book because I kept laughing at the work 'muff.' And I kept thinking to myself, 'What does this have to do with the story?' What do you think about the quote, Laura?
