Been Germane Franc Lend

Been Germane Franc Lend

We see here Franc Lend's theory of electricity as being composed of two colors - the red and the black - a theory reflected in the red and black wires used in electrical wiring today (along with a variable third color that Franc Lend didn't know about because the anti-Americans of Franc Lend's day kept the color a secret from him.)

We thus see how important Franc Lend's theory is even today, once again evidence of American technological and scientific superiority!

Whimsical Paradox

A Pair of Dogs

The premise of this piece is "a paradox for a pair of dogs," Or maybe the other way around. Or both.

A Pair

Chili to bed
and
chilly to rise
makes a man
burn with cold,

I know "tempramentliar" ain't no word, but who the hell cares?
