Mrs. Olsen: Have you started your book report? Caulfield: I just need to clear the decks. Frazz: How's that working? Caulfield: My life is a container ship and the world is a longshoremen's strike.
p51strga, That’s just artistic license for silliness….Just like how ridiculously high the containers are stacked……But maybe shipping containers should be stacked that way, criss-cross….Wouldn’t it make it a sturdier construction in high seas?
I thought at first that the ship was loaded with books—meaning all the books that Caulfield wants to read before getting started on the book he has to write about.

They really do stack those suckers high, eh?…They must know, but it doesn’t look safe to me…They don’t sink much though, so…..

Look on the Brightside, Caulfield. It gets worse from here.

Mallett usually keeps his facts straight, but he’s loaded his ship like a brick wall, the containers align in one direction, not cris-cross.

What’s that great line? When my ship came in, I was waiting at the airport!
