Letter: Squawk succeeds in amusing

To the editors of the Hawk:

Thank you for publishing last week's Squawk. I laughed my head off at it. Of course, I imagine that some did not, but perhaps Geoffrey Chaucer's lines from the "Prologue to The Miller's Tale" are worth repeating: "And eek men shall nat make ernest of game" (l.78). (We teach Chaucer, by the way, in Texts and Contexts - one of our very canonical selections for that course.)
