I just found this-- now what was the masturbation scene???? And why would Ward leave it out? Since it's the American translation, perhaps out of deference to or fear of the great American tradition of book burning, or its milder version, school library banning. Karen

Afternoon, Rambi, I missed your posting of the sun essay. Pardon me, pretty please. I don't remember the masturbation scene. I was probably busy. I do remember the words of lIly Tomlin: "We have reason to believe that man first walked upright to free his hands for masturbation" That quote you posted was from the Myth of Sisyphus. Thanks. I see you're wearing a linen towel now, too. What is this, a fad?! Why is everyone so sensuous? All the guys wanna do here is open their pores--not oggle.
