Schlubs

6:48 seems to be the perfect time out here on perfect days. 

I looked up the definition of schlub. It’s not what I thought it meant. It’s a clumsy, stupid person. I thought it meant a messy, out of shape dishevelled guy.   

After nine days here, I’ve seen my fill of them and I don’t want to tell tired tall tales about walking miles to school in blizzards - or in my day yadda yadda  … but … in my day the boys tended to be on the 70s don’t have a lot of money to eat good and I'd rather spend it on beer so that's why I'm super lean ... side. If they didn’t have any muscle on their bones … a whole lot of them had great shiny shaggy hair and a litheness about them that made them delectable. They’re big as a mailbox now or just … I don’t know … there’s an aesthetic lack that is a sorry thing before my eyes.
