Euphoriolanus

Euphoriolanus (? - ?) is a happier man than Coriolanus (nonfiction).

Contract with Extract of Radium company

For several millenia, the Extract of Radium company employed Euphoriolanus as part-time Official Taster.

This arrangement ended abruptly when Euphoriolanus declared himself "The Great Euphorio" and swan-dove into the Radium Squeezer.

Whether he is dead, or convalescing in the Squeezer, or anything else, is unknowable.

Since the Squeezer uses impossible programs (nonfiction) to separate fictitious Radium extract (nonfiction) from actual Radium extract, it is impossible to do whatever it is that you (nonfiction) are thinking.

The Adulteration of Bergamot

John Brunner says that he knows -- but cannot prove -- that Euphoriolanus owns at least one copy of the lost erotic novel The Adulteration of Bergamot.

The Nacreum

Euphoriolanus occasionally gets himself committed to the Nacreum for what he he calls "a bit of recreational incarceration."

Braunschweiger of the Vanities

Euphoriolanus likes to make a show of ordering enormous quantities of Braunschweiger of the Vanities, only to stalk away in a huff without paying.

Clockwork Bard

Euphoriolanus has a spiteful grudge against the Clockwork Bard, a robot (nonfiction) programmed to simulate William Shakespeare (nonfiction) in world ravaged by nuclear war (nonfiction).
