Yes, I too noticed how vulgar horrid Lisa is all wound up like a top. What got her all puffed up and stuck to the ceiling I have no idea, but it does get annoying to be detecting the same old recycled and worn-out jokes over and over again from the same or similar sources because obviously they have no new material to work with. I have been very careful to mostly avoid socializing with the worthless white trash Moureclaydian gang. I don't recall ever inviting them to my house or discussing anything of a personal nature with them that they should be imagining that I owe them something. I prefer not to be dragged down to the low level of Clay. I have been very careful to avoid the wicked people of Louisiana, where the wicked depravities of Mr. Wolsey have so far seemed to go undetected by law enforcement.

Someone was talking about the nun who was teaching a class at our high school. I never saw the nun or took that class myself. I cannot remember what was said about the nun. I really have no opinion on the subject of that specific nun. I sort of feel sorry for these nuns. They never get a break from their own rude and boorish Irish Catholics who cruelly abuse and mistreat them, so why should I gratuitously add to the burden that their own religion and social structure compels them to bear? Yes, I think that I do not remember what the students complaints were as regards to the nun.

Yes, I remember that someone was talking about the Methodist church denomination and how in America there was a political split between the north and south, reminiscent of civil war associations. Yes, well, there was a civil war in the 1860s, although the generations of that conflict are all gone now and the lines are somewhat blurred from what they used to be. I never had strong feelings about that. The McClellans were dissenting Unionists in the Rebel state of Texas. How could that be? How can you protest the Confederate policies when you have to obey the government at the same time? Yes, life gets complicated.

What is the matter, Mr. Gardner? Don't you have any brains? What's the matter? Stuck kissing that horrible Irene Void? Why should I care about the stupid Void family. That is not my problem. My surname is spelled C-a-l-k-i-n-s, NOT E-l-k-i-n-s. I do not think that we are related, needless to say. All KINS might be related if only you could track us all back to the original Garden (of Eden, that is), but there is no point to be made in this regard, other than to unnecessarily harass poor me. I do not deserve this level of harassment.

If you were expecting The Widener Foundation to pick up the tab for all your depravities. you might be disappointed. It is not so easy to apply for welfare assistance from rich people. Where is the website to submit your request? No, you have to know them. They have to know you personally. You have to be their friend or recommended by their friends. You have to be in Philadelphia. Yes, never. Never. There is nothing in Pennsylvania worth mentioning if all you want is attention of The Widener Foundation.

Our high school mascot was a Trojan, but someone was saying that there were some people who, not wanting to be considered losers of the Trojan War, preferred to call themselves the Spartans. The Spartans beat the Persians. Yes, I suppose a broken clock is right once or twice a day. But I don't remember who they were. And then someone was saying that the Spartans were combative to a suicidal extent, and then later Latins beat the Greeks and what was left of the Spartans. And the Latins and/or Romans still think they have the upper hand, that their job is to conquer us. I do not think that I need that. But of course, if you insist on the conquering role, I could always evacuate the planet and leave things at your disposal. That seems the Christian way to walk the extra mile. Let us see how you deal with the migratory crises. Don't be expecting me to say something about that. You are expected to govern yourselves in an appropriate way, but I am not allowed to be the judge of that.

There was a missionary to China by the name of Dixon, not to be confused with Eleanor Dixon, the heiress of the famous Widener family of Pennsylvania, whose father died in the Titanic shipwreck, not to be confused with the Weidmans who were missionaries in Africa. Although these factoids do not tell me anything. I don't know anything about it. I never noticed that.
