Which serves in the office of a wall,

Against the envy of less happier lands."

I can attest to the truth of what the author writes. Many of my patients are represented by all seven criteria.

Cracked is a humor website. But this article is the plain cold truth, and reminds me of a line from Lord Byron's Don Juan: "And if I laugh at any mortal thing, 'tis that I may not weep."

About Aristus

I truly believe that we will all live in peace and brotherhood someday. And so that I don't lose my faith in humanity, I will live my life as if that day had already happened.
