HOW TO TAKE A POST-HURRICANE SHOWER*

     If you are an iron-willed individual, you will find taking a post-hurricane shower rather easy. After disrobing and entering the tub, turn on (with a great deal of wishful thinking) the handle designated "HOT" very slowly so as to prevent the resulting cold water from splashing on you. It also helps to stand as near the rear of the tub as possible to prevent the water from spattering on target.

     When you have finally grasped the idea that there is no hot water, turn on the shower and prepare to sympathize with Mr. Agen's harvest. (It is advisable that you not try to adapt yourself to your hiemal environment but that you instead wash like made and prepare for your final freezedunking to turn off the water.)

     After emerging from those two minutes of frozen Hades, grab a towel and dry off immediately. If you desire, you may then convince yourself that, as long as hurricanes are around, the millennium will be a millennium away.

* It is advisable to not risk the above unless someone in the household has been trained in the art of treating frostbite. He or she should also be prepared to defrost you if necessary.
