The other day upon the stair,
I met a man that wasn't there.
He wasn't there again today,
I wish I wish he'd go away.

"The Sirens of Titan" is worth reading, if only for his interesting use of
the Bible. I don't want to spoil the surprise for anyone planning to read
it, but I doubt that Dave, Walt Jr., or Mr. McDonald would enjoy it.
