Quote 25 of 28

From The Catcher in the Rye, by J.D. Salinger

Then, after the Rockettes, a guy came out in a tuxedo and
roller-skates on, and started skating under a bunch of little tables,
and telling jokes while he did it.  He was a very good skater and all,
but I couldn't enjoy it much because I kept picturing him _practising_
to be a guy that roller-skates on the stage.  It seemed so stupid.
