The Debt Sentence: (Posted without additional comment.)

Don't Leave Home...: Most parents will say they want their kids to be critical thinkers...

Throw in a "rap sheet," and a record, and what you have here is the recipe for America's permanent under-class and the "new" Jim Crow.

Pater Nostrum: 

Yet another dictum by which the rich instruct the poor to be content if not proud of their lowly lot.
You run into these fuckers EVERYWHERE.

Not Forgotten: 

"I loved Molly with a love rare and true. I had the chance to spend part of an evening in her company, drinking and eating raw oysters at a bar in Nawlins in the mid-80s, in company with a bunch of other writers and grad students...She was witty, razor-smart, and drank like a sailor..." ~ Woody NinetyNiner Konopak

Repent, Cried The Tick-Tock Man:

Clocks are just handy ways to keep track of the countdown.
(Props to Harlan Ellison, a creep but a good writer.)
