The Book
a: Book ~
b: Jew of our culture
What: "The book is fast becoming the despised Jew of our culture. Der Jude is now Der Book. Hi-tech propogandists tell us that the book is a tree-murdering, space-devouring, inferior form of technology; that society would simply be better-off altogether if we euthanized it even as we begin to carry around, like good little Aryans, whole libraries in our pockets, downloaded on the Uber-Kindle."

a: Eosinophils ~
b: dump trucks
What:
" Eosinophils are like dump trucks filled with chemical weapons to defend the body, Dr. Putnam said. When called to the scene by, say, the presence of an unwelcome milk protein, the eosinophil dumps its load of chemicals, which break apart the milk protein but also can damage surrounding body tissues."
