homespun homilies that never quite caught on, 6 (from the protein wisdom conceptual series)
“When the cat’s away, the mice will almost certainly find their way into the liquor cabinet, then — after smoking a couple of spliffs and taking a few laps in a punchbowl filled with whiskey sour and Maraschino cherries — will begin a spectaclular, uninhibited mouse orgy the likes of which hasn’t been seen since the Black Plague, or, less obviously, as a metaphorical subtext in the Satyricon. “The filthy
