Get Rich Quick

Okay, in terms of "the good of humanity" and all that, it's important to cure diseases like cancer.

I had an onion tied to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, you couldn't get white onions because of the war; all you could get...

Do you ever get stuck in a conversation that you can’t get out of?
