Then there was the time I found Farrow & Ball



  Out of the corner of my eye
  at one of our newspaper sites
  today, I noticed a reference
  to a time the President stum-
  bled in upon his valet enter-
  taining someone in bed. I for-
  bore to read on. Who hasn't
  encountered the odd limb as-
  kew here and there, in the
  mildest of inquiries? This
  would be nothing, anyway, to
  that afternoon some years a-
  go, I wandered into a room-
  ful of painters, slathering

  What draws the edge, join-
  ing jamais and déjà vu?
