b"Today the Hammacher Schlemmer (sounds like a bad response to treating syphilis) catalog came. That is worth a scan since its target audience is not me. $31,500 for aquatic thusters. $25,000 for a robotic bartender. $54,000 for a self contained hootenanny, although the description refers to it a veritable shin-dig. Which is it? I refer to the only Oz who you can trust:\\n\\n Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage; and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny."
