I was reminiscing with Charlie today about the Achewood strip from Friday, and commenced to remark upon one of the many things from this particular strip of which I derived great pleasure.

To quote:

Top of my list of favourite things about the strip is the capitalized “S” in satisfaction. Owing to the idea of the fourth inalienable right [editor: the other three being life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness], reserved especially for the South — “Satisfaction” from grevious appellations.

I’ve been doing a lot of thinking as of late regarding the duality of love and war and the tendency for a person to choose one or the other, sometimes for the sake of the one not chosen. I must save this thought for later.
