thus spoke the curmudgeon

On the white board (which happens to be a sickly tan-green color) when I came into my office this morning:

The meek shall inherit the earth, but not the mineral rights. J. Paul Getty

Judge: a law student who marks his own papers. H.L. Mencken

Carlyle said, "A lie cannot live"; it shows he did not know how to tell them. Mark Twain

These are the contributions of Roger toward my education and well-roundedness. Or perhaps they are intended to be inspiring. The world may never know.
