How About It Women and Other Fragments in Scrambled Text
The text comprises a jumble of humor and anecdotes including a panhandler street encounter about money for food, an American soldier awaiting mail in Ireland, a racial joke exchange, two girls discussing a sister's upcoming wedding, a Cuban rum note, a bear sighting near Waukon, and assorted stray phrases from different items.
