KZ Writes Good
The internet is a huge bathroom wall, and any halfwit with a keyboard and a connection has an opportunity to scrawl on it. Take me, for instance. My name is KZ. For a good time, come find me at Prosaic Shades of Gray.

Commenting on a Classic
Damn, what is up with Cervantes? I admit Don Quixote is a clever book (judging by what I’ve read so far), but it’s a little too dark to be funny to me. I know, there’s such a thing as a dark comedy, but the subject matter kind of leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Don Quixote has driven himself insane by reading all his chivalry books, and now he prances about like a belligerent ass. Showing the same impunity as Homer Simpson with his dueling glove in the Tomacco episode, Don Quixote needlessly starts fights with people, thus embarassing himself in the name of chivalry and honor. I can see how the book was meant to be amusing, but I just find it terribly depressing. What’s so funny about insanity? When your crazy Uncle Charlie pisses himself because he thinks the devil has set him on fire, is your first reaction to break into laughter? Hardly, I’d hope. Anyway, I’ll read on. Maybe I’ll lighten up a bit or something. Hasta luego, kids.

Classical culture is lost on kids these days. When one speaks the brilliance of Leonardo or the marvelous works of Michelangelo, one conjures up images of those radical Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. When Kevin speaks of the writings of Cervantes, I think of that bastard prick from the "SoulBlade" and "SoulCalibur" videogames.
