I love jotting down lines from this and that, and holding on to lines I enjoy. Inevitably, shifts happen and I find myself reminded of a sentence or paragraph I jotted down a long [...]
Today, we have a very special guest here on Bigmouth. Perhaps one of my very favorite things about him, other than the fact that he’s very cool, and very kind, is that in order to Google him and come up with the right guy in your search, you must add the word “Hitler” after his [...]
