We always had the same meal on Saturday nights at Pencey. It was
supposed to be a big deal, because they gave you steak. I'll bet a thousand
bucks the reason they did that was because a lot of guys' parents came up to
school on Sunday, and old Thurmer probably figured everybody's mother would
ask their darling boy what he had for dinner last night, and he'd say,
"Steak." What a racket. You should've seen the steaks. They were these little
hard, dry jobs that you could hardly even cut.
