Quote of the Day!

Posted on March 18, 2011 by kara

Great use they have, when in the hands
Of one like me, who understands,
Who understands the time and place,
The person, manner, and the grace,
Which fools neglect; so that we find,
If all the requisites are join’d,
From whence a perfect joke must spring,
A joke’s a very serious thing.

-Charles Churchill, The Ghost (book IV, lines 1379 – 1387), 1762

About kara

We know our letters just fine, and we know our numbers to a certain point, but books were always the realm of four-eyed poindexters with bowler hats and cravats. That’s why it pleases us so that America’s proud illiterates are finally stepping up and pushing back against the crushing tide of education that threatens to swallow us all into its gaping maw of checked facts. Champions of the Ignorantiat will not like it here.
