Seriously?<\/strong><\/p>\n

If I was
\nless hampered
\nby a lackadaisical
\ngene –
\nI blame it all
\non DNA –
\nI might
\nget serious
\nabout tracking
\ndown the
\norigins of
\nthe ludicrous
\nnotion that
\n\u201cthe fear of
\nThe Lord
\nis the beginning of
\nwisdom.\u201d<\/p>\n

I might make up
\na story about
\nhow it first
\nappeared
\nin a comedy club
\non the outskirts of
\nAfterlife City.<\/p>\n

Good thing the
