Well, I studied lit, so I better know what a spondee is. But the truth is, somewhere along the way in grad school I unlearned almost everything I ever knew about poetic meter. I'm not sure why. I think it was a classic Freudian reaction formation against DeManian close reading.
I've got two words that are going to make all the pain go away. Miniature Golf.

In case my office doesn't turn all the TVs we have to the inauguration ceremony, where would be the best place to watch it online, do you think?
