Interesting take on the theme, Don. I saw the repetition and framework as analogies for mundanity, normalacy while the slip between provides an escape, even from gender.

But then, maybe I'm just full of crap...

Fascinating take, Maso.
Yeah that mystery is in there somewhere in the infinities of story-within-the-story.
The fourth wall is somewhere between the title and the page. The work reaches out one level up, by it's nature.

thanks...and I did it with fixed-width (courier) font and PRE /PRE html tags.
I've gotta give this one some thought...

thanks sweetie

Joe, you're the smartest frickin' dumbass I know 
I have a computer/math background, so if you can understand recursion it's a piece of cake. Here's how you figure out a factorial. Factorial(5) being 5x4x3x2x1

factorial(n)
{
   if(n==1)
      return 1;
   else
      return n*factorial(n-1);
}

...hope that clears it up

In order to understand recursion, one must first understand recursion.

Simplified : are we there yet?

A couple of "infinite" poems - authors unknown


A graduate student at Trinity
Computed the square of infinity.
  But it gave him the fidgets
  To put down the digits,
So he dropped math and took up divinity.
 
      Pi vs e
Pi goes on and on and on ...
And e is just as cursed.
I wonder: Which is larger
When their digits are reversed?

--night night. (you people are hilarious)
