| - | |
| - | |
| Tree snow and rock beginnings the mountain in back of the | C |
| - | |
| lake promised us eternity but the lake itself was filled with | D |
| - | |
| thousands of silly minnows swimming close to the shore | E |
| - | |
| and busy putting in hours of Mack Sennett time | F |
| - | |
| The minnows were an Idaho tourist attraction They | G |
| - | |
| should have been made into a National Monument Swimming | H |
| - | |
| close to shore like children they believed in their own im | I |
| - | |
| mortality | J |
| - | |
| A third year student in engineering at the University of | A |
| - | |
| Montana attempted to catch some of the minnows but he went | K |
| - | |
| about it all wrong So did the children who came on the | C |
| - | |
| Fourth of July weekend | L |
| - | |
| The children waded out into the lake and tried to catch the | C |
| - | |
| minnows with their hands They also used milk cartons and | M |
| - | |
| plastic bags They presented the lake with hours of human | B |
| - | |
| effort Their total catch was one minnow It jumped out of a | C |
| - | |
| can full of water on their table and died under the table gasp | N |
| - | |
| ing for watery breath while their mother fried eggs on the | C |
| - | |
| Coleman stove | O |
| - | |
| The mother apologized She was supposed to be watching | H |
| - | |
| the fish THIS IS MY EARTHLY FAILURE holding the | C |
| - | |
| dead fish by the tail the fish taking all the bows like a young | P |
| - | |
| Jewish comedian talking about Adlai Stevenson | B |
| - | |
| The third year student in engineering at the University of | A |
| - | |
| Montana took a tin can and punched an elaborate design of | A |
| - | |
| holes in the can the design running around and around in | Q |
| - | |
| circles like a dog with a fire hydrant in its mouth Then he | J |
| - | |
| attached some string to the can and put a huge salmon egg | R |
| - | |
| and a piece of Swiss cheese in the can After two hours of | A |
| - | |
| intimate and universal failure he went back to Missoula | C |
| - | |
| Montana | C |
| - | |
| The woman who travels with me discovered the best way | G |
| - | |
| to catch the minnows She used a large pan that had in its | S |
| - | |
| bottom the dregs of a distant vanilla pudding She put the | C |
| - | |
| pan in the shallow water along the shore and instantly hun | B |
| - | |
| dreds of minnows gathered around Then mesmerized by | T |
| - | |
| the vanilla pudding they swam like a children's crusade | U |
| - | |
| into the pan She caught twenty fish with one dip She put | V |
| - | |
| the pan full of fish on the shore and the baby played with | D |
| - | |
| the fish for an hour | W |
| - | |
| We watched the baby to make sure she was just leaning | H |
| - | |
| on them a little We didn't want her to kill any of them be | J |
| - | |
| cause she was too young | P |
| - | |
| Instead of making her furry sound she adapted rapidly | J |
| - | |
| to the difference between animals and fish and was soon | X |
| - | |
| making a silver sound | Y |
| - | |
| She caught one of the fish with her hand and looked at it | Z |
| - | |
| for a while We took the fish out of her hand and put it back | A2 |
| - | |
| into the pan After a while she was putting the fish back by | T |
| - | |
| herself | B2 |
| - | |
| Then she grew tired of this She tipped the pan over and | M |
| - | |
| a dozen fish flopped out onto the shore The children's game | C2 |
| - | |
| and the banker's game she picked up those silver things | D2 |
| - | |
| one at a time and put them back in the pan There was still | E2 |
| - | |
| a little water in it The fish liked this You could tell | F2 |
| - | |
| When she got tired of the fish we put them back in the | C |
| - | |
| lake and they were all quite alive but nervous I doubt if | G2 |
| - | |
| they will ever want vanilla pudding again | H2 |
