One hot evening in Padua they carried him up onto the roof and he could look out over the top of the town. There were chimney swifts in the sky. After a while it got dark and the searchlights came out. The others went down and took the bottles with them. He and Luz could hear them below on the balcony. Luz sat on the bed. She was cool and fresh in the hot night.
Luz stayed on night duty for three months. They were glad to let her. When they operated on him she prepared him for the operating table; and they had a joke about friend or enema. He went under the anaesthetic holding tight on to himself so he would not blab about anything during the silly, talky time. After he got on crutches he used to take the temperatures so Luz would not have to get up from the bed. There were only a few patients, and they all knew about it. They all liked Luz. As he walked back along the halls he thought of Luz in his bed.
Before he went back to the front they went into the Duomo and prayed. It was dim and quiet, and there were other people praying. They wanted to get married, but there was not enough time for the banns, and neither of them had birth certificates. They felt as though they were married, but they wanted everyone to know about it, and to make it so they could not lose it.
Luz wrote him many letters that he never got until after the armistice. Fifteen came in a bunch to the front and he sorted them by the dates and read them all straight through. They were all about the hospital, and how much she loved him and how it was impossible to get along without him and how terrible it was missing him at night.
After the armistice they agreed he should go home to get a job so they might be married. Luz would not come home until he had a good job and could come to New York to meet her. It was understood he would not drink, and he did not want to see his friends or anyone in the States. Only to get a job and be married. On the train from Padua to Milan they quarreled about her not being willing to come home at once. When they had to say good-bye, in the station at Milan, they kissed good-bye, but were not finished with the quarrel. He felt sick about saying good-bye like that.
He went to America on a boat from Genoa. Luz went back to Pordonone to open a hospital. It was lonely and rainy there, and there was a battalion of arditi quartered in the town. Living in the muddy, rainy town in the winter, the major of the battalion made love to Luz, and she had never known Italians before, and finally wrote to the States that theirs had only been a boy and girl affair. She was sorry, and she knew he would probably not be able to understand, but might some day forgive her, and be grateful to her, and she expected, absolutely unexpectedly, to be married in the spring. She loved him as always, but she realized now it was only a boy and girl love. She hoped he would have a great career, and believed in him absolutely. She knew it was for the best.
The major did not marry her in the spring, or any other time. Luz never got an answer to the letter to Chicago about it. A short time after he contracted gonorrhea from a sales girl in a loop department store while riding in a taxicab through Lincoln Park.
For half a century the Ford Motor Company has been increasing the perceived size of male genitalia through our line of trucks, sports cars and SUVs. We have been the first to market with technologies such as four-wheel-drive and eight-cylinder engines.
It is from this proud tradition that we announce the new Ford Womanizer, our next generation of penis-enhancing mega-roadster. The first of its kind, the Womanizer is an all-terrain military-grade luxury sports coupe with 24 cylinders of throbbing masculine power at your command. Whether you’re an orthodontist cruising a singles bar for a woman half your age or a military commando that needs to raze a third world village in the name of freedom, this is the vehicle for you.
The 2010 Ford Womanizer can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 2.3 seconds, with seating for 37 and five and a half feet of leg room. The womanizer creates the new standard in misogyny.
The vehicle comes standard with 7.1 channel stereo surround sound, anabolic steroids, Sports Illustrated’s swimsuit issue, gangster rap, Roofies and a surface to air missile system. The Womanizer makes fuel efficiency a thing of the past while increasing your pussy-getting coefficient by twenty to forty percent (disclaimer: dependent on pre- existing pussy-getting coefficient).
In addition, the Womanizer is the first vehicle of its kind that allows you to urinate while standing up and chew tobacco while driving. Crush lesser men, lesser vehicles and give yourself an evolutionary advantage with the new Ford Womanizer.
At a local Z car meeting last night and one of the guys tried to give my son (16 months old) hi-five. We've never attempted this before. After the guy gave him hi-five few times he started doing it back. Now all you have to do is hold your hand in front of him and he'll give you hi-five! quick learner!

We just got back from a trip to West Virginia. Along the way we stopped and stayed in a hotel. We get in the room and set him down to run around, he's been strapped in the car all day so he's a little wound up. Almost immediately he heads for the A/C unit to hit buttons...loves to hit buttons. By the time I notice him, he's adjusted the A/C to 63° (I didn't mind this so much) but he also turned the fan to low...so it was going to take a long time to get there. So that was a ticking time bomb to wake up freezing in the middle of the night. Drag him away from it and set him down again, he starts running back to it saying "buh'in, buh'in"! First time he said button.
