This is based on the The Thematic Apperception Test, or TAT, is a projective measure intended to evaluate a person's patterns of thought, attitudes, observational capacity, and emotional responses to ambiguous test materials. In the case of the TAT, the ambiguous materials consist of a set of cards that portray human figures in a variety of settings and situations. The subject is asked to tell the examiner a story about each card that includes the following elements: the event shown in the picture; what has led up to it; what the characters in the picture are feeling and thinking; and the outcome of the event.  So watch out what you write or maybe someone will think you're nuts!

    You want one she goes a little limp in your hands but when it counts, she has the bite, see?"

  3. That Old Cad, Maurice


    He love his wife, as skinny as a stalk of celery.

    He loved his daughter, too young to aspire to any vegetable.

    He loved his mistress, plump with joy.

    He loved his belly (rising like a moon, hard as a drum).

    Most of all, he loved love—

    how squash blossoms succomb to butter,

    how wine wants dirty fond in the pan,

    how roses rot in a jar.
