"Have you ever seen the commercial for garbage bags where they test the strength of the bag by seeing how many pounds of pressure they can put on it before it breaks?"

"So that's Jardine - a garbage bag hooked up to a hydraulic press, doing his best not to fall apart in spite of the guy who keeps turning the knob up."
(Jardine is the...hrmmm. His role is a little hard to define. Let's say...Jardine is both the challenge and the the hardly-even-subtextual homoerotic romantic object of Gordon Korman's wonderful A Semester in the Life of a Garbage Bag.)
