Reading Time: 2 minutes In the vast cornucopia of literature, it’s hard to decide what to read. Voltaire vies for attention over Vonnegut. Shakespeare strives against Sandburg. Gibran grapples with Goethe. Horace holds back Hemmingway. We’re immersed in unturned pages—and we always will be. No literary bucket-list is long enough to reach the shore. For this purpose, […]

Some variety of pump action 12-gauge mangler, the kind that I would clean in the living room if I had a daughter and her boyfriend were coming to dinner for the first time.
