    “With boys you always know where you stand. Right in the path of a hurricane. It’s all there. The fruit flies hovering over their waste can, the hamster trying to escape to cleaner air, the bedrooms decorated in Early Bus Station Restroom.”
    —Erma Bombeck (20th century)

    “All through the years of our youth
    Neither could have known
    Their own thought from the other’s,
    We were so much at one.”
