Benchley on Bohêming:
[Three snippets attached from a Benchley piece in Vanity Fair March 1916. I love how candid he is about his vested interest in pursuing his thesis so as to have something to turn in--and how, with his typical gentle humility, he admits that he doesn't really know what he's talking about. And, yes, though it's not shown here, he does indeed verbify "Bohemia" in this piece.]
