Today's Post Will Take Twelve Minutes

That's how long it takes to listen to Harry Chapin and his incomparable band sing "30,000 Pounds of Bananas."

I can't get inspired today and am feeling like a mediocre hack, so I thought I'd present something by a bona fide genius to make you feel your visit here today wasn't a total waste.

So if you've got twelve minutes, I'm about to make you smile. If you don't, come back later when you do. You won't regret it.
