Science fails to recognize the single most potent element of human existance, letting te reighns go to the unfolding is faith. - System of a down from the song "Science"


I once had a use, a purpose, a skill
Before the occasion a shoe doth kill
Fallen suddenly from my place
Condemned now by the human race
Suddenly there was a thwack!
Abruptly I began to crack!
Green fluid drips all around
Slowly leaking to the ground
Lying broken on the floor
Eternally useless forevermore

My favorite green highlighter got ran over by a car. Within a few days of this tragic event I found someone else's green highlighter had been stepped on and crushed as well. It was a sad week for highlighters.
