Fun [link](http://www.smalltime.com/dada.html), for anyone who feels that life is making too much sense these days.
(When I told the friend who sent it to me I was going to link it here, she was appropriately humbled by the honor. :D)
BTW, I asked my usual question of the Dada oracle (“Will Bachelor #1 call?”), and got the following answer:
> [@](#):

> keep an umbrella in bed with you to encourage success in the fields of glass-blowing and newspaper-peddling.
This, although not as direct as the answer that **Johnny LA** ’s Magic Eight-Ball gave me, seems at least as germane.
