    / The Bulwer-Lytton fiction contest is \
    | held ever year at San Jose State Univ. |
    | by Professor Scott Rice. It is held in |
    | memory of Edward George Earle |
    | Bulwer-Lytton (1803-1873), a rather |
    | prolific and popular (in his time) |
    | novelist. He is best known today for |
    | having written "The Last Days of |
    | Pompeii." |
    | |
    | Whenever Snoopy starts typing his novel |
    | from the top of his doghouse, beginning |
    | "It was a dark and stormy night..." he |
    | is borrowing from Lord Bulwer-Lytton. |
    | This was the line that opened his |
    | novel, "Paul Clifford," written in |
    | 1830. The full line reveals why it is |
    | so bad: |
    | |
    | It was a dark and stormy night; the |
    | rain fell in torrents -- except |
    | |
    | at occasional intervals, when it was |
    | checked by a violent gust of |
    | |
    | wind which swept up the streets (for it |
    | is in London that our scene |
    | |
    | lies), rattling along the housetops, |
    | and fiercely agitating the scanty |
    | |
    | flame of the lamps that struggled |
    \ against the darkness. /

    / Courage is resistance to fear, mastery \
    | of fear--not absence of fear. Except a |
    | creature be part coward it is not a |
    | compliment to say it is brave; it is |
    | merely a loose misapplication of the |
    | word. Consider the flea!--incomparably |
    | the bravest of all the creatures of |
    | God, if ignorance of fear were courage. |
    | Whether you are asleep or awake he will |
    | attack you, caring nothing for the fact |
    | that in bulk and strength you are to |
    | him as are the massed armies of the |
    | earth to a sucking child; he lives both |
    | day and night and all days and nights |
    | in the very lap of peril and the |
    | immediate presence of death, and yet is |
    | no more afraid than is the man who |
    | walks the streets of a city that was |
    | threatened by an earthquake ten |
    | centuries before. When we speak of |
    | Clive, Nelson, and Putnam as men who |
    | "didn't know what fear was," we ought |
    | always to add the flea--and put him at |
    | the head of the procession. |

    / We were young and our happiness dazzled \
    | us with its strength. But there was |
    | also a terrible betrayal that lay |
    | within me like a Merle Haggard song at |
    | a French restaurant. [...] |
    | |
    | I could not tell the girl about the |
    | woman of the tollway, of her milk white |
    | BMW and her Jordache smile. There had |
    | been a fight. I had punched her |
    | boyfriend, who fought the mechanical |
    | bulls. Everyone told him, "You ride the |
    | bull, senor. You do not fight it." But |
    | he was lean and tough like a bad |
    | rib-eye and he fought the bull. And |
    | then he fought me. And when we finished |
    | there were no winners, just men doing |
    | what men must do. [...] |
    | |
    | "Stop the car," the girl said. |
    | |
    | There was a look of terrible sadness in |
    | her eyes. She knew about the woman of |
    | the tollway. I knew not how. I started |
    | to speak, but she raised an arm and |
    | spoke with a quiet and peace I will |
    | never forget. |
    | |
    | "I do not ask for whom's the tollway |
    | belle," she said, "the tollway belle's |
    | for thee." |
    | |
    | The next morning our youth was a |
    | memory, and our happiness was a lie. |
    | Life is like a bad margarita with good |
    | tequila, I thought as I poured whiskey |
    | onto my granola and faced a new day. |

    / The Least Perceptive Literary Critic \
    | |
    | The most important critic in our field |
    | of study is Lord Halifax. A most |
    | individual judge of poetry, he once |
    | invited Alexander Pope round to give a |
    | public reading of his latest poem. |
    | |
    | Pope, the leading poet of his day, was |
    | greatly surprised when Lord Halifax |
    | stopped him four or five times and |
    | said, "I beg your pardon, Mr. Pope, but |
    | there is something in that passage that |
    | does not quite please me." |
    | |
    | Pope was rendered speechless, as this |
    | fine critic suggested sizeable and |
    | unwise emendations to his latest |
    | masterpiece. "Be so good as to mark the |
    | place and consider at your leisure. I'm |
    | sure you can give it a better turn." |
    | |
    | After the reading, a good friend of |
    | Lord Halifax, a certain Dr. Garth, took |
    | the stunned Pope to one side. "There is |
    | no need to touch the lines," he said. |
    | "All you need do is leave them just as |
    | they are, call on Lord Halifax two or |
    | three months hence, thank him for his |
    | kind observation on those passages, and |
    | then read them to him as altered. I |
    | have known him much longer than you |
    | have, and will be answerable for the |
    | event." |
    | |
    | Pope took his advice, called on Lord |
    | Halifax and read the poem exactly as it |
    | was before. His unique critical |
    | faculties had lost none of their edge. |
    | "Ay", he commented, "now they are |
    | perfectly right. Nothing can be |
    | better." |
    | |

    / "Speak, thou vast and venerable head," \
    | muttered Ahab, "which, though |
    | ungarnished with a beard, yet here and |
    | there lookest hoary with mosses; speak, |
    | mighty head, and tell us the secret |
    | thing that is in thee. Of all divers, |
    | thou has dived the deepest. That head |
    | upon which the upper sun now gleams has |
    | moved amid the world's foundations. |
    | Where unrecorded names and navies rust, |
    | and untold hopes and anchors rot; where |
    | in her murderous hold this frigate |
    | earth is ballasted with bones of |
    | millions of the drowned; there, in that |
    | awful water-land, there was thy most |
    | familiar home. Thou hast been where |
    | bell or diver never went; has slept by |
    | many a sailer's side, where sleepless |
    | mothers would give their lives to lay |
    | them down. Thou saw'st the locked |
    | lovers when leaping from their flaming |
    | ship; heart to heart they sank beneath |
    | the exulting wave; true to each other, |
    | when heaven seemed false to them. Thou |
    | saw'st the murdered mate when tossed by |
    | pirates from the midnight deck; for |
    | hours he fell into the deeper midnight |
    | of the insatiate maw; and his murderers |
    | still sailed on unharmed -- while swift |
    | lightnings shivered the neighboring |
    | ship that would have borne a righteous |
    | husband to outstretched, longing arms. |
    | O head! thou has seen enough to split |
    | the planets and make an infidel of |
    | Abraham, and not one syllable is |
    | thine!" |

    / "Good afternoon, madam. How may I help \
    | you?" |
    | |
    | "Good afternoon. I'd like a FrintArms |
    | HandCannon, please." |
    | |
    | "A--? Oh, now, that's an awfully big |
    | gun for such a lovely lady. I mean, not |
    | everybody thinks ladies should carry |
    | guns at all, though I say they have a |
    | right to. But I think... I might... |
    | Let's have a look down here. I might |
    | have just the thing for you. Yes, here |
    | we are! Look at that, isn't it neat? |
    | Now that is a FrintArms product as |
    | well, but it's what's called a laser -- |
    | a light-pistol some people call them. |
    | Very small, as you see; fits easily |
    | into a pocket or bag; won't spoil the |
    | line of a jacket; and you won't feel |
    | you're lugging half a tonne of iron |
    | around with you. We do a range of |
    | matching accessories, including -- if I |
    | may say so -- a rather saucy garter |
    | holster. Wish I got to do the fitting |
    | for that! Ha -- just my little joke. |
    | And there's *even*... here we are -- |
    | this special presentation pack: gun, |
    | charged battery, charging unit, |
    | beautiful glider-hide shoulder holster |
    | with adjustable fitting and contrast |
    | stitching, and a discount on your next |
    | battery. Full instructions, of course, |
    | and a voucher for free lessons at your |
    | local gun club or range. Or there's the |
    | *special* presentation pack; it has all |
    | the other one's got but with *two* |
    | charged batteries and a night-sight, |
    | too. Here, feel that -- don't worry, |
    | it's a dummy battery -- isn't it neat? |
    | Feel how light it is? Smooth, see? No |
    | bits to stick out and catch on your |
    | clothes, *and* beautifully balanced. |
    | And of course the beauty of a laser is, |
    | there's no recoil. Because it's |
    | shooting light, you see? Beautiful gun, |
    | beautiful gun; my wife has one. Really. |
    | That's not a line, she really has. Now, |
    | I can do you that one -- with a battery |
    | and a free charge -- for ninety-five; |
    | or the presentation pack on a special |
    | offer for one-nineteen; or this, the |
    | special presentation pack, for |
    | one-forty-nine." |
    | |
    | "I'll take the special." |
    | |
    | "Sound choice, madam, *sound* choice. |
    | Now, do--?" |
    | |
    | "And a HandCannon, with the eighty-mill |
    | silencer, five GP clips, three six-five |
    | AP/wire-fl'echettes clips, two |
    | bipropellant HE clips, and a Special |
    | Projectile Pack if you have one -- the |
    | one with the embedding rounds, not the |
    | signalers. I assume the night-sight on |
    | this toy is compatible?" |
    | |
    | "Aah... yes, And how does madam wish to |
    | pay?" |
    | |
    | She slapped her credit card on the |
    | counter. "Eventually." |
    | |

    / Well, anyway, I was reading this James \
    | Bond book, and right away I realized |
    | that like most books, it had too many |
    | words. The plot was the same one that |
    | all James Bond books have: An evil |
    | person tries to blow up the world, but |
    | James Bond kills him and his henchmen |
    | and makes love to several attractive |
    | women. There, that's it: 24 words. But |
    | the guy who wrote the book took |
    | *thousands* of words to say it. |
    | |
    | Or consider "The Brothers Karamazov", |
    | by the famous Russian alcoholic Fyodor |
    | Dostoyevsky. It's about these two |
    | brothers who kill their father. Or |
    | maybe only one of them kills the |
    | father. It's impossible to tell because |
    | what they mostly do is talk for nearly |
    | a thousand pages. If all Russians talk |
    | as much as the Karamazovs did, I don't |
    | see how they found time to become a |
    | major world power. |
    | |
    | I'm told that Dostoyevsky wrote "The |
    | Brothers Karamazov" to raise the |
    | question of whether there is a God. So |
    | why didn't he just come right out and |
    | say: "Is there a God? It sure beats the |
    | heck out of me." |
    | |
    | Other famous works could easily have |
    | been summarized in a few words: |
    | |
    | * "Moby Dick" -- Don't mess around with |
    | large whales because they symbolize |
    | |
    | nature and will kill you. * "A Tale of |
    | Two Cities" -- French people are crazy. |

    / The Bulwer-Lytton fiction contest is \
    | held ever year at San Jose State Univ. |
    | by Professor Scott Rice. It is held in |
    | memory of Edward George Earle |
    | Bulwer-Lytton (1803-1873), a rather |
    | prolific and popular (in his time) |
    | novelist. He is best known today for |
    | having written "The Last Days of |
    | Pompeii." |
    | |
    | Whenever Snoopy starts typing his novel |
    | from the top of his doghouse, beginning |
    | "It was a dark and stormy night..." he |
    | is borrowing from Lord Bulwer-Lytton. |
    | This was the line that opened his |
    | novel, "Paul Clifford," written in |
    | 1830. The full line reveals why it is |
    | so bad: |
    | |
    | It was a dark and stormy night; the |
    | rain fell in torrents -- except |
    | |
    | at occasional intervals, when it was |
    | checked by a violent gust of |
    | |
    | wind which swept up the streets (for it |
    | is in London that our scene |
    | |
    | lies), rattling along the housetops, |
    | and fiercely agitating the scanty |
    | |
    | flame of the lamps that struggled |
    \ against the darkness. /

    | himself a fair, hot wench in |
