Lol - I am, but I thought it would be easier for you to look it up than me telling the whole story. He’s a character from the Thurber short story, “The Greatest Man in the World”.

I did look it up, and it is ok. I was worried that it was a character I should know as a reasonably educated person, but it turns out it was obscure enough that I don’t feel too bad. I read what the story was about, it sounds interesting and I may read it one of these days.

It’s only a half-dozen pages. “The United States of America had been...blindly constructing the petard which, sooner or later, it must be hoist.”
