bughouse

One of the fellows that works at the stable--you've seen 'm--Henderson--he lives around the corner on Fifth--he says she's bughouse."

He was entranced by illumination, and did not hear the "Bughouse," whispered by Jim, nor see the anxiety on his sister's face, nor notice the rotary motion of Bernard Higginbotham's finger, whereby he imparted the suggestion of wheels revolving in his brother-in-law's head.

We didn't travel to other towns to get eaten alive in bughouses like New Canaan, and Lou's Red Sox were always stacked with the best players to create the best opportunity to beat Bangor during the district all-star tournament.

We arrived mid-morning at the Upper Hudson River, outfitted with the tools of our trade: sweep nets, dip nets, rakes, waders, field guides, GPS units, magnifiers, bughouses and viewing trays.

What forms are more protean, more elastically suited to transformation, than these vigorous animated figures that vibrate across the screens of our bughouses and our minds?
