I watched a comedy skit on YouTube about two Santa Barbarians.

Doesn’t this single page of allegory make you stop and think? This is why I would rather be with young people. They loan me their books. Alexander (8) has more than 400 titles strewn all over the house, on the floor, on tables, on chairs, so many I must be careful not to slip and fall. I always return his books, for a book is more precious than all other objects. The other day during tutoring, I threw some of them over my shoulder in imitation of a stymied teacher who threw a book at a classmate.
