- space in 'berlin' by lou reed - the packed, dense lady day, the wide pastoral men of good fortune. the genius of putting his most beautiful soulful lament - coney island baby - before the rock and roll animal version of sweet jane, the most glorious affirmation of life - contrast the apollan and dionysiac, the eternal recurrance, &c.

- campus clothing for next year - bespoke white silk suit; kid gloves; mink opera cape; cigarette holder; big floppy hat.

- the perfect martini has been a so far unobtainable goal for man for he has not included the olive in the process. the olive is to be soaked, and filled with vermouth; the vermouth is distributed in the gin by dropping it in from a [hermetic] height. the olive is removed and placed into the glass. the martini is then made as normal

- the brothers karamazov as the inspiration of the chipmunks - alvin (dmitri), simon (ivan), theodor (alyosha).
