 No more of parental rules!
We're heading for the snow!
Good riddance to those grown up ghouls!
We're leaving! Yukon Ho!

 Nothing helps a bad mood like spreading it around.

 Obviously the great thing about this job is the complete freedom of the schedule. So long as I meet the deadline, they don't care when I work or how I work. Sometimes I work all day if I'm under a crunch; I take a day off here and there if I have something else pressing or if I'm just tired of what I'm doing . . .

 Often it takes some calamity to make us live in the present. Then suddenly we wake up and see all the mistakes we have made.

 Oh look, yet another Christmas TV special! How touching to have the meaning of Christmas brought to us by cola, fast food, and beer conglomerates. Who'd have ever guessed that product consumption, popular entertainment, and spirituality would mix so harmoniously? It's a beautiful world all right.

 People who get nostalgic about childhood were obviously never children.

 Probably the only person Calvin fears.

 So, what's it like in the real world? Well, the food is better, but beyond that, I don't recommend it.

 Some people are pragmatists, taking things as they come and making the best of the choices available. Some people are idealists, standing for principle and refusing to compromise. And some people just act on any whim that enters their heads. I pragmatically turn my whims into principles.

 Sometimes when I'm talking, my words can't keep up with my thoughts. I wonder why we think faster than we speak. Probably so we can think twice.

 Such is American business, I guess, where the desire for obscene profit mutes any discussion of conscience.

 That's the difference between me and the rest of the world! Happiness isn't good enough for me! I demand euphoria!
