I heard some spoken word pieces by a woman on the university of
massachusetts, amherst radio station five years ago.  I want to know
the name of the woman, and if possible, what she is doing now, and if
I could somehow acquire her work.
  Memorable phrases (probably misquoted) from one piece:  
   "42, I bought a pair of left-handed scissors for you."
   "Slap the table! Slap it, now!"
   [Something about going to the moon] "How will we get there?  
    3...2...1...whoosh!  That's right... we'll walk"

  Another spoken word piece had to do with three talented kids (in the circus?)
