Hi. My name's Nick.

I'm an ex-lit major. Loved the lit; hated the major. Gonna be a chiropractor now.

~POEM OF THE WEEK~
For November 22nd-28th
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The Death of the Ball Turret Gunner"

From my mother's sleep I fell into the State,
And I hunched in its belly till my wet fur froze.
Six miles from earth, loosed from its dream of life,
I woke to black flak and the nightmare fighters.
When I died they washed me out of the turret with a hose.

-Randall Jarrell
