I want to talk about bolt cutters, for a minute, and our toes. Whose toes are fair game and through what process may that be determined? In this regard, the state may be considered as a capacious and sturdy shoe. In the proper shoe, there are eyelets and neatly woven laces to be threaded through them. The tongue of the shoe, bless its heart, bridges the gap between the premier products of the cobbler’s art, the left flap and right flap — which would be stage left and stage right for you theater people. The thoughtful strictures of the lacing leaves creases on it over time and the sections of the tongue delineated thereby have been the subject of many studies. The “vulgar” have observed that there is career and money to be found in this pursuit. But you must only observe the tongue as it exists in its relation to the shoe structure and only in relation to the functional movement of the shoe as it meanders down this promenade we call life. Then it’s okay.
Whither the . . . and who. . .? shut up. Thank you. As I was saying. . .
