Very funny. Actually, NHL stands for Not Here Lately and is a reference to
your wit.
I believe "Nine Stories" is also known as '"For Esme - with Love and
Squalor" and Other Stories.' Dad always gets mad when someone re-works his
work- it's one of the reasons he doesn't publish.

Yep, it was renamed "Nine Stouries," and "A Perfect Day for Bananafish" was
retitled, "Seyour Blows His Brains Out."
NHL. National Hockey League.
