Candlebrow Gear

[Monte Davis]

Jim:
 
 > Okay, so how long before somebody here sets up a Cafe Press store,
selling  
 > Candlebrow University XXL Department of Metaphysics sweatshirts? 
 
I'll buy, maybe even pay extra for mottoes on the back.
 
For the XXL:  "More cranks, double-domes, and bugbrains than you can scare
off with any known weapon" (405)
 
[cc:Legal -- verify that this isn't already in use by MIT, Stanford or one
of the Ivies]
 
For the M, "In the beginning was the Lard"
 
And for the S, of course, just: "Smegmo!"
 
The first time I read "Candlebrow," I flashed on the Swedish festival coming
up next week and images like this

which would fit in just fine with the description of campus life on p. 408
