We flit from Rhodes gazing thoughtfully over the Cuban seafront to him wearing a sash and serving rice to Buddhist monks in Laos, with only one of his loftier mission statements ("We looked at the world and decided where we wanted to do things affirmatively") to guide us.

By suddenly switching grips, from left hand on top to right hand on top, Howe had given up some power and control, but he furnished surprise, as well as hand-eye coordination and power, backed up by an ability to either skate over a defender or flit around him.

Unlike most of its high-street brethren, who flit from factory to factory while jostling for room on the production line with dozens of other brands, H&M maintains what it calls "strategic partnerships" with suppliers that provide 100 percent of its products for five years at a time.

They often flit from job to job without staying in one place too long -- they're "The Job-Hopping Generation," says Gallup -- and are much more likely, relative to previous generations when they were in their 20s, to live at home and to put off family formation for a long time.

The document alleges that the new Karhoo was acquired by a group called Flit Technologies, led by "two former employees" of Karhoo with full backing from RCI Bank and Services, for around $1 million ($500,000 for Karhoo, $2003,000 towards paying creditors), plus a commitment of $15 million in further investment.

While Great Lakes had been moving some processes toward automation since Blystone started four years ago, the systems were not connected in a single interface — and that meant multi-tasking, overworked engineers had to flit from sensor to sensor to check each one, often in the middle of the night.

The Volkstheater's adaptation, by Stephan Kimmig, who also directed, and Roland Koberg, retains the setting of the original series, while seven actors from the company's ensemble bring to life a large and varied cast — 31 roles in total — who flit in and out of the individual vignettes with remarkable elasticity.

One of his best is Emphyrio, which charts the coming of age of a young economic adventurer named Ghyl Tarvoke in a galaxy ruled by "lords" and "ladies" who flit from star to star in their luxury space-liners while planet-bound artisans must produce beautiful objects for them to buy and enjoy.

But the one that matters most, and the thing that sometimes jars me back into the present tense when I'm down, and into awareness of all the good things around me that I'd let fade down to gray, are the periodic bright moments of grace that flit through even a shitty, shitty football game.

We flit from story to story like bees — bees, keys, swords, crowns and hearts dance a heady symbolic gavotte throughout — never knowing where we might land, or who will turn out to really be who, or if the pirate is a real pirate or a metaphor, or whether any of it has a point.

The sensibility of stoned 20-somethings at midnight, he realized — marked by an unreasonable love of repetition, absurdity, narrative disjuncture and jokes that either last way too long or flit by in a short-attention-span-accommodating blink — had significant overlap with that of little kids in pajamas, laughing themselves silly over breakfast cereal.

What could be more captivating than a vision of your future in which you are no longer weighed down by school, but instead spend most of your time larking around with close friends in an enormous apartment, while Brad Pitt, Bruce Willis, Julia Roberts and Reese Witherspoon flit in and out of your lives?

Consider the bedtime shadow puppet show, the non-thing that depends on flesh and stone some-things to flit across the wall, the toy that vanishes in the dark but also dissolves in the light of day, the loving entertainment put on to coax a restless child into slumber so the parent can slip away.

The mirrored sequins on a Chanel dress cast reflections that flit across the walls like mischievous wraiths, and you may even detect a hint of "Harvey" (1950)—in which Jimmy Stewart was best friends with an invisible rabbit—as the doors of a hotel elevator open and close to let through a nonexistent guest.

Constance: I also love that the Mexican ambassador is in a pantsuit for the whole episode: It's so subtly jarring to see a woman wearing pants, with her hair down, while the Wives and Handmaids flit silently around her in their enveloping and identical gowns — especially since this episode is particularly concerned with the caste uniforms.

The dish is fantastic with the fat sea scallops we get in New York from the Shinnecock fleet on the South Shore of Long Island, but it becomes transcendent if you can make it with the tender little bay scallops that flit through the grasses of Peconic Bay, between the forks at the eastern end of the island.

But the unsettling part is that, with him kneeling, it happens that his face is weirdly close to the zipper of her pants—he didn't do this on purpose, she doesn't think, but his face is maybe three inches away—so how could the idea of him performing oral sex on her not flit across her mind?

Best known for lighting and furniture that flit between the bravely industrial and supremely elegant, including his iconic Screw side tables that resemble oversize automotive jacks and his pillowy Void pendant light that could be mistaken for an Anish Kapoor jelly bean sculpture, Mr. Dixon's creations have typically appealed to a more rarefied and affluent clientele.

In a lot of ways, they're two sides of the same coin (that is, they're demonstrative of her ability to flit between pop and hip-hop), but in the end, I love Nicki best when she's scrappy, mad, and flexing her talents up against some dudes, so it's got to be "No Flag" that is, officially, the most Minaj.

It was a game in which we were told from the very start that all of the fairy tales, improbable legends, and wild conspiracy theories that flit across humanity's collective consciousness are not only true, but imminent—that it was, for example, our responsibility as players to prevent the Mayan apocalypse, or to hunt down Bast with the help of Baron Samedi.

If the dead can come back to this earth and flit unseen around those they loved, I shall always be near you; in the garish day and in the darkest night — amidst your happiest scenes and gloomiest hours — always, always; and if there be a soft breeze upon your cheek, it shall be my breath; or the cool air fans your throbbing temple, it shall be my spirit passing by.

I find myself calmly standing sentry there, part-clad in my mail of moonlight, and doing so in a state of such optical and auditory supervigilance that I perceive, with no trace of a startle reflex, the movements not only of the forest creatures as they hop and scamper and flit but even, through the blackened chaparral, the distant silhouette of a person who stands at a window on San Francisco.

Responses flit in and out of pure nerddom ("Scalia are green-skinned, shape-shifting antagonists in the Marvel comic universe"), pop culture ("Scalia is the electronic music producer and DJ who just won a grammy"), scientific minutiae ("Scalias are Australian legless lizards, of the genus Pygopus, with prehensile tails and scaly flaps in place of hindlimbs"), and five-point SAT vocab words ("Scalia are subjective internal experiences") — the only constant is absurdity.

So maybe, some day in a city near you or a city in which you now live, it'll be normal for you to step outside or off the train and to look up at a tall, cylindrical building around which hundreds of seemingly very large flies flit about, stopping to reload before setting off with bundles of cat food or books or groceries to be delivered to yet another person who just clicked "place your order."
