My apologies, Bill. In my youth I did once write graffiti. I was visiting the A & S side of campus and scribbled in a john:

"Franz Kafka is alive and well and living in my terrarium."


In my first few days at university, I saw written "All men are brothers. All wars are civil wars." I'm turned off by maudlin stuff, but I thought this was touching for its simplicity and lack of bathos. Underneath someone had scrawled "Go back to Iran, you commie m- f-" (Actually, it was a quote from a catholic priest whose name I can't recall.)
