Yeah, yeah, I don’t update. Sue me. And when you come back here and wonder why my wise words aren’t updated daily, remember: The Bible isn’t updated daily either.

Because you’re old, fat, flabby and much too much in my way.
No, not you. Them. Those old, fat, flabby Berkeleyians (Berkeleyites?) who insist on wearing spandex bottoms FOR GOD KNOWS WHAT REASON as they walk, stumble, walk, stumble, stumble, stop, walk, stumble, asphyixate, stumble, stumble, stop, walk, stumble, […]
