Stones And Swallows


"Would you rather swallow a stone or stone a swallow?" This ancient Zen koan was one you might have heard throughout Chicago during the 1920's (note: assumes you were alive and non-deaf and Chicago-dwelling during the time-space period in question). If you were posed this particular riddle, then leading historians agree that your best response was undoubtedly: "I'd rather swill with a steno". Assuming, that is, that you were trying to infiltrate SAP (Stenographers Against Prohibition).
