The Man Who Assembled an Orange Is Dead
Those who said he substituted an actual orange
for the last step have been rightly disgraced.
However, nothing tickled him more, and he
laughed uproariously every time it was
brought up.
No, the video record was meticulously clear.
He started at eight of a Sunday morning
and by eleven, Voila! Of course the
materials took quite a long time beforehand.
Since the record was so complete, the two
judges, one the science advisor for the President
and the other a Provost at MIT, decided to
eat the orange.
Here you, schooled in Irony, will speculate that
it tasted lousy.
But the judges claimed it was a shame
ever to eat anything ever again.
It was that spectacularly delicious!
