TOUCHSTONE: This is the very false gallop of verses. Why do you infect yourself with them? ROSALIND: Peace, you dull fool. I found them on a tree. TOUCHSTONE: Truly, the tree yields bad fruit.
I haven’t read The Hunger Games, and haven’t really paid attention to the book series. I had the barest concept of the story from The Baby, who liked the first book, was cool to the second, and hated the third. So I had pretty much no expectations going in. I only went because the girls […]
The other day I was listening to Alabama’s 40 Hour Week, a song I had heard countless times. But one lyric stood out to me that I hadn’t noticed before: “But the fruits of their labor are worth more than their pay And it’s time a few of them were recognized.” I’m not sure if […]

One time Kaleb and I went to work on a printer. While we were there, a young female doctor was in the room. The three of us bantered back and forth for a while until the printer was finally fixed and it began to spit out backed up print jobs. Doctor: “You guys are the […]
