October 5, 1975: Sunday

Helped Tim. Calvin even liked the music. He really put it on ol’ Mad Dog Jack. Asked him about Vulcanizing his Chickens. Remind me to tell that one to you someday. Jack got so riled up he’s going to have a special program Wednesday to get back at Tim. The Chalet Lecture was by John and Jeff and their diving pictures and their work with food cycles. The Winter Overs leave on Sunday. Last night they had a party. They strung up a hippie Summer crasher, kidnapped Jack and tied him into a straight jacket, and packed ol’ Nartsiss’ ass. (Any form by which cold snow is administered to one’s bare bottom.)

Sam got a sliver of metal in his eye. The Winter Over physician (they call him Doc Crazy) had to come down from the party to gouge around Sam’s eye.

It was cold in the Hotel last night. The dream I had of Joy was compensation enough.
