    There is not one single thing I would change about "The Great Gatsby". I read that book with a lump in my throat the entire time. It makes me feel so empty and hopeless. I love it.

    Whoa! I just meant your scotch note was strong and to the point!

    And, also, Hemingway is rumored to have lined whiskey.

    BTW, the LTE’s recent surge can be partly attributed to our new ringer. You, my friend, are prodigious.

    I am communicative. I have a job, but I don't work very hard, and always looking for another reason to avoid work. I get paid either way.

    The word you are looking for is communicable. Communicable. Very certain.

    Too soon to use the term virulent.

    Wait. Definitely not true. My ideas somehow have a negative R0. I think I convince more people to leave my side in any argument.

    Anti-Bilasism has been on a noticeable uptick since your arrival.

    The universe of pro-Bilas, anti-turkey people who can do 500 push-ups in a day is very small. We are not familiar with your kind and therefore naturally band against you.

    And it used to be “The” DBR but then Justin Timberlake told them to drop the “the” and go with DBR because it’s cleaner.

    Unrelated note, hoping to break bread with OPK relatively soon. Should be lecturing at the Medical College of Georgia in the near future.

    You've heard of the term chick lit, I'm sure. Well, Hemingway, IMHO, is the epitome of <<male anatomy that rhymes with chick>> lit. Fitzgerald I will read any day. And if you want to make me read more books by WWI veterans, I'll take Tokien. Want to make me read about the war itself from WWI veteran? Ok, give me All Quiet on the Western Front. Want me to read about other wars? Ok, Red Badge of Courage or The English Patient (if you have only seen the movie, you don't know what the book is about). Other books about war that I have yet to read because, tbh, not a favorite genre of mine, but maybe we should consider And Then We Heard the Thunder or The Yellow Birds. And yes, I'm coming up with this list thinking about books that might be better choices for high school English classes because if if weren't for high school English classes, I would have put down the Hemingway after about 30 pages.
