Generally speaking, most geometry you've studied is likely to be Euclidean. George A. Armington was another very clever man. The most important thing I know about him is that he founded a company called The Euclid Crane and Hoist Co., which is primarily known for making really big earth-moving equipment. Generally speaking, any freeway you might drive on was built using dump trucks based on a design by Euclid Crane and Hoist. My Dad was a relatively clever man, who worked in steel manufacturing before I was born. Above the door in our workshop was a Polaroid picture of him as a young man posing quite candidly with his pants around his ankles next to another fellow and a giant rack of Euclid axles. That faded pic was not to be defiled or removed. About two years ago, I started trying to write a letter spelling out the validity of my fantasies. I refuse to admit that after all this time I've failed to get to the point, and see it as a glorious wall documenting some most excellent side quests, even if it never gets around to the Polaroids or Euclid axles.\" - from the Introduction \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Totality Poem\" (excerpt) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eGlen was pretty graceful for a man in his 60's\u003cbr\u003ewearing thigh boots and corset.\u003cbr\u003eIn the low light of the hotel\u003cbr\u003ehe tried not to wake his lovers, \u003cbr\u003eall lovely people were scattered around the room\u003cbr\u003eas if arranged for some kind of movie set....\u003cbr\u003eFirst, there was the matter of a lacy pair of black panties\u003cbr\u003ethat simply had to be located.\u003cbr\u003eIt's not as though they were worth much, \u003cbr\u003ebut someone gave him those panties, \u003cbr\u003esomeone who really liked seeing him in them....\u003cbr\u003eGlen scanned the room for movement\u003cbr\u003ehe felt the crevices for one particular soft satin shadow.\u003cbr\u003eAnyone watching might think Glen the most glamorous, \u003cbr\u003ethe most bold cat burglar there ever was.\u003cbr\u003eHe was Silent, \u003cbr\u003ehis task mysterious.\u003cbr\u003eHe was like the letter D\u003cbr\u003ein bundt cake.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Mudd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798987967133\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fourcats Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/21\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 198\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.42d","brand":"John Mudd","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48852422164735,"sku":"9798987967133","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/non-euclidean-graffiti-john-mudd-9798987967133","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
