NP but Vonnegut: I picked up a copy of Cat's Cradle, for the first time in decades, at somebody's place
and read this: "bokononists believe that humanity is organized into teams, teams that do God's will without
ever discovering what they are doing."
Team Chums?

#4 ALINEA [Chicago restaurant] Grant Achatz confuses me. Or, to be more exact, his food confuses me.
After eating, say, his dish "LAMB.......?????........!!!!!!!!!!!!" (lamb served with 86 ingredients), my tongue
is puzzled. It's like a Thomas Pynchon novel: Both are brilliant, frustrating, and, in the end, miraculously
fulfilling.
