how was i to know that a, chaldron was an impossible item you could never outbid for on ebay?  i learned the name of this item from, jonathan letham's book, chronic city.  he is not an ordinary wordsmith.  he is a genius in creating images and worlds created by his word combinations.  people, mainly men, who love new york city or other BLUE-STATE megalopolises will be able to appreciate letham's work.

new jersey people stay out.  you are not equipped culturally or intellectually to cope with letham.
