Every vacation for the past five years has seen me make a firm resolution to finally start reading through Euclid’s Elements. Plutarch’s Lives… Gibbon’s Decline and Fall… Caesar’s Commentaries… All works that any decent human being should have fall under his or her eyes at least once in a lifetime and yet, damn it all, if I don’t spend the time to stop that ruffian King Koopa, who will?
