The Head Fool Speaks

September 5, 2010

Let’s get to it. I’ve been waved at, said hello to, given the finger, and shaken hands so many times this week by people I don’t know or can’t remember knowing. I mustered what little of my mental power left to try and figure out this conundrum. The answer eluded me until my sister called [...]
