More From Jean Kerr

I will never forget that the only reason i'm standing here today is because somebody, somewhere stood up for me when it was risky. stood up when it was hard. stood up when it wasn't popular. and because that somebody stood up, a few more stood up. and then a few thousand stood up. and then a few million stood up. and standing up, with courage and clear purpose, they somehow managed to change the world.
Courage Purpose World
Once i saw a duck walking down the street so i went into subway and ordered two pieces of bread, and they informed me that they could not do that, like there was some speical rule at subway that two pieces of bread weren't allowed to touch. so the woman asked me what i wanted on the sandwich and i said i do not care, it is for a duck, and she was like oh then it's free. i was not aware that ducks eat for free at subway. it's like give me a chicken fajita sub, but don't worry about ringing it up, it is for a duck.

Fat is a barrier, a bellicose statement to others that, to some, justifies hostility in kind. the world says to the fat person, "your fatness is an affront to me, so we have the right to treat you as offensively as you appear." fat is not merely viewed as another type of tissue, but as a diagnostic sign, a personal statement, and a measure of personality. too little fat and we see you as being antisocial, fearful and sexless. too much fat and we see you as slothful, stupid, and sexually hung up.

The death of a friendship was usually slow and insidious, like the wearing away of a hillside after years of too much rain. a handful of misunderstandings, a season of miscommunication, the passing of time, and where once stood two women with a dozen years of memories and tears and conversation and laughter—where once stood two women closer than sisters—now stood two strangers.
Laughter Memories Rain
Fat realized that one of two possibilities existed and only two; either dr. stone was totally insane – not just insane but totally so – or else in an artful, professional fashion he had gotten fat to talk; he had drawn fat out and now knew that fat was totally insane.
Fashion Two Insane
Hamlet [...] we fat all creatures else to fat us, and we fat ourselves for maggots. your fat king and your lean beggar is but variable service, two dishes, but to one table; that's the end. claudius alas, alas. hamlet a man may fish with the worm that hath eat of a king, and eat of the fish that hath fed of that worm. claudius what dost thou mean by this? hamlet nothing but to show you how a king may go a progress through the guts of a beggar.

If we traverse the world, it is possible to find cities without walls, without letters, without kings, without wealth, without coin, without schools and theatres; but a city without a temple, or that practiseth not worship, prayer, and the like, no one ever saw.
Kings Prayer Wall
If only ed fleming had a mother who gave such sound advice. the manager of wazoo's, a downtown denver restaurant, fleming is a csu alum who has been darned giddy about the rams' recent success. so giddy that he donned a necklace made of pez candies, a red blazer - and nothing else. a few people gaped (some actually set aside their beers), but most ignored fleming as he strutted like a red-blazered rooster, demanding that all hail the mighty naked beer king.
