I took a walk across the campus of Keene State College last night with the goals of getting a little exercise and some fresh air. In my wanderings, I saw some students with some crazy goatees. For a momment, I considered walking up to them and saying something like “I used to have a crazy goatee that went down to here, but I cant grow one like that now, because I have a 401(k) and if grew a goatee like that, the government would take it away.” I thought that that might sound crazy, and I worried that they might realize that I wasn’t a student and knife me, so I didn’t say anything.
