You expected any different from the author of "The Sensuous Dirty Old Man" ???? I met Asimov in college: he was a college room-mate of one of my professors, and after a guest lecture, he came to a party at my professor's place, to which I (actually, my entire Freshman Honors English class.. . .) was invited.

Yes, he drank, and yes, he pawed the girls. But the wild part was the Pun Battle Royale. . . Asimov started punning, and the rest of us tried to top him. . . it went on for HOURS. . . I'm still proud to say that I was one of the last two standing in the battle, and the OTHER was a professor. . . Asimov won, of course. . . at about 5:00 AM. . . .

I'm jealous.
