There&#039;s a little truth in every JK.<br /> There&#039;s a little curiousity in every JW.<br /> There&#039;s a little knowledge in every IDK.<br /> There&#039;s a little emotion in every IDC.<br /> <br /> Tell them to look up.<br /> Tell them to remember the stars.

Favorite Quote:
I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it&#039;s a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life&#039;s realities. <br /> Theodore Geisel
