I was listening to an NPR piece on CEO performance and pay this morning when a quote caught my ear.
Inspiration comes from the oddest places.
Unlike our neighbors' kids, all of the children in Lake Whybehere are below average. They're all good children, but just a little behind the curve. A few seconds late off the starting blocks in the game of life. Their conversations are enthusiastic, but babble. Their play is confused and often ends in medical treatment. Most suffer from lethargy, but a few demonstrate occasional spunkiness. Like running in circles with scissors faster than usual. Maybe there's something in the water. The power plant dumps an awful lot of crap into Lake Whybehere. Perhaps we'll dump it in Wobegone from now on.
