I feel your pain, Appleby.



Taken (stolen?) from "Catch-22"

"Appleby was as good at shooting crap as he was at playing Ping-Pong, and he was as good at playing Ping-Pong as he was at everything else. Everything Appleby did, he did well. Appleby was a fair-haired boy from Iowa who believed in God, Motherhood, and the American Way of Life, without ever thinking about any of them, and everybody who knew him liked him.

'I hate that son of a bitch,' Yossarian growled."


I feel an urge to read that book again. Why does he bring up ping-pong? Who cares.

Update: I think it's a state law in Iowa now that you need to post this video every time you mention Iowa.
