Mnemonic


[zhu-] George Costanza is in [1] front of the [-ang] chapel, dealing with a possessed barrister wig that he can't get rid of. He puts it on the lawn, then goes over to a 木 tree and whittles it down into a 樁 stake. He then takes the 樁 stake (which the priests enchant with holy powers) and pounds it through the barrister wig, using a heavy 臼 mortar to pound it in. Relived, he sits back and stares at the 樁 stake, thinking about how he really should not have bought the barrister wig from the devil, thinking it would cure his baldness.
