Unless you are (or were?) homeschooled by fundamentalists, this week marks the beginning of a new school year. For students and teachers alike, this means another 9-ish months of baffling, awkward, occasionally erotic "educational" encounters and American Gladiator style physical challenges that nibble away at the psyche like a lazy moth in a closet full of old halloween costumes. Something to be excited about? Maybe! But maybe not...
Today's Most Important Meal (hint: not breakfast)
