TIPSters: Steven's message brought back fond memories of Howard Chace's "Anguish Languish." If you would like to read more (and I would strongly encourage you to do so, as it is a wonderful diversion as well as having some interesting applications when covering language in class), check out this site which has, as far as I can tell, the complete text of Chace's out-of-print book:

This time he came up with a novel one (to me, anyway) .

It's pretty cute, actually. It's at: http://www.exploratorium.edu/exhibits/ladle/ Stephen ___________________________________________________ Stephen L.
