Some further observations on the origins of "crumpets"
Crumpet = a small crumb kept as a pet
crumpet = a crumpled petal soaked in rum
crumpet = a squashed trumpet
crumpet = an umpires petulant stare
crumpet = a rather foul fart after eating rump steak

My favorite pieces, the one that reconciled me to the many others,
which I had been amused by but didn't necessarily "get," were the

Jill visited NY a couple of weeks ago and visited the Dieter Roth
