Bathroom Monologue: I believe it was Mark Twain

"I believe it was Mark Twain who said, 'Never let a building located reasonably close to your house, governmentally provisioned with supplies such as books and pencils, staffed by people whose profession is encouraging you to understand mathematics, science and history, interfere with your education.' Surely running off to smoke a bowl behind the Lady Foot Locker is the course to enlightenment he had in mind. Venture forth, young prodigy."

    Lady Foot Locker ... somehow the whole thing is funnier with Lady Foot Locker... not as funny if you had picked, say, Sears or the Hallmark store.

    100 years from now people will be quoting John Wiswell! I agree with Cathy, Lady Footlocker just works, doesn't it?
