Mowing is tedious and can be avoided by wetting down the yard with a fine spray of #2 heating oil. Or during the winter months you can sprinkle rock salt on the whole thing.—from The Bachelor Home Companion. In the inimitable style that has made him one of America's most popular humorists, P.J. provides an essential guide to the practical business of living in the modern world and provides that "Camus had it all wrong about the myth of Sisyphus—it's not symbolic of life, just housekeeping."
