Friday, April 22, 2005. O for the days of yore! O for the days of yore when people had time to read tomes and tomes! For in this busy world, may be even more so on my busier days, I like to write and write and write! Posted by bigknowshamus @ 7:48 PM. Complications, Contradictions, and Chains.

But you know what's ironic?
