Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.
- President Dwight D. Eisenhower

John Harvard

He was consumed by New England. Yes, I made a tuberculosis joke.

$120.97 FOR TWO BOOKS! EACH IS ONLY FOR A THREE CREDIT HOUR CLASS! THOSE LEECHES! OH, MY GOD, AM I EVER PISSED.

Thanks for reading, though.

Where I went to school, they had textbook rental. I only had to pay for workbooks or the like. It rocked.

Be glad you're not in a nursing program.

When I went to Madonna University, I liked to laugh at all of the wouldbe nurses near tears at the bookstore checkout aisle. Holy assrapery!
