"Remember that fat kid on Hard Copy with a toy gun? The cops zapped him with a taser until he went bald."
Bill Madison (1995)
"Uh... OK. The Industrial Revolution to me is just like a story I know called The Puppy Who Lost His Way. The world was changing and the puppy was getting... bigger. So you see, the puppy was like industry. In that, they were both lost in the woods. And nobody, especially the little boy - 'society' - knew where to find 'em. Except that the puppy was a dog. But the industry, my friends, that was a revolution. (Long pause) Knibb High football rules!!"
