Sichere BeschftigungsZonen (SBZ, safe occupation zone) for straitlaced workaholics who will finance the good life of the people in the APZ. This is a pun, since the SBZ in West German use (used till late into the Brandt era by the conservative press) meant the Sowjetisch besetzte Zone (Soviet Occupied Zone) or Sowjetische Besatzungszone (Soviet Occupation Zone), the predecessor of the GDR. "GewaltErlebnisParks" (GEP, violence experience parks) for incurable violent offenders and Nazis with special areas set aside as ethnic theme parks for cultural minorities (such as lederhosenwearing Bavarians), to avoid too close contact between these pogo races lest the pursuit of what each considers necessary for happiness suffers. These parks will be surrounded by very high walls and are located in former East Germany. Among his gifts, two in particular stand out. That Ring Lardner has a reputation today, for example, is owing to the fact that Perkins saw him as more than a syndicated humorist. The book sold well and, thanks to excellent reviews, established Lardner as a literary figure.
