Marcus Aurelius spent time alone to think about the world. Because of that rightful introspection, in writing, from one of the last five great Emperors, we have insight into the history of what fed us. We share some favorite quotes from Marcus' "Meditations" in examination.

"Ah Bartleby! Ah humanity!" We share why Herman Melville's short story classic -- Bartleby, the Scrivener -- is the perfect anti-hero-protagonist-villain for memeing in our modern world. We are Bartleby. We cannot be Bartleby.

All men fall. The great man stands back up. The greater man helps his fellow man rise again, too. We examine what it means to be a man in the meme of a modern world where circumstances spin and facts change on the whim of the whirlwind.

Most musicals die ugly and forsaken deaths. We reveal the ugly underbelly of creating the Broadway musical -- where money and mischief -- are more important, and valued, than doing the right thing for the benefit of humanity.

"Tell them that God bids us do good for evil." We unravel the wrappings of the Evildoers among us. They have taken over and are preparing to drown the rest of the non-believers. Now is the time to stand up to stare them down!

The last question of cruelty we have left to answer is if we need to kill to live. We cut open the Omaha Stockyards, animal cruelty, and our life habits of aging diseases -- all related to eating the right foods and not the wrong lives.

Judge Judy has two words for us, and two words only: DON'T FALL! We explore aging, and health, and the physiological, and social norms, of falling, and of being, felled.

What happens to a classically trained actor who turns to a life in television? We take a turn as he discovers the vortex where talent and expectation meet to find an undivine end in 1970s episodic television.

If we have one, singular, predictable, human failing it is this: We LOVE too much! Yes, love is NOT the answer. Love is never enough. Love is overrated, overexposed, and over-occupied! We take the Tricorn love beast for a wrangle in the depths of definition.

Can you identify someone's Race only by listening to the way they speak? Can you identify someone's Race by the way they pronounce words? Can you identify someone's Race by the the way they pattern a spoken phrase? We investigate the definition of speech against Race against the color of expectation.
