Authors' Note: dietary: (DYE-eh-t'ree, as here, or DYE-uh-tay-ree): a hospital department best known for producing meal trays to be distributed to in-patients.

 This verse is dedicated to the proposition that bars located near hospitals may be viewing-places of partiular interest. And yes! Dr. Korn is likely the medical centre's sole specialist-practitioner in his area of interest.

Authors' Note:  The golem, an entity from Jewish folklore, is likely the least well-known of the supernatural beings participating in this story. Made entirely of inanimate matter, e.g. mud or clay, this sizable being can classically be either a victim or villain, and connotes hope or despair. In more recent popular culture, it refers to any crude automaton devised by a sorcerer.

Although she apparently has few close friends, “Nessie” is a nickname for Scotland’s famed Loch Ness monster.

Authors' Note: A mule, formerly known as a buck, makes a wonderful mixed drink on a very hot day. Its key ingredients are ginger beer (ideally the opaque soapy extract bottled in the Caribbean), citrus juice (most often freshly squeezed lime), and a variety of liquors. In the concoction’s most common form, the Moscow mule, vodka is used as the source of alcohol.

 

Author's Note: This verse, borrowed from OEDILF, deals with seasonal underage drinking on the Canadian prairies; click HERE.
