A while back I got an e-mail from my landlords telling me to discontinue my practice of leaving garbage bags outside on the curb- on top of the pile of ten garbage bags that are always already there- because "city inspectors" had "witnessed" someone from my apartment doing that three times in the previous week.
What, I asked, do they have surveillance? Yet somehow, it took me about two weeks to relate this whole thing to "Alice's Restaurant."
