Joseph Rudyard Kipling (December 1865 - January 1936) was an English journalist, short-story writer, poet, and novelist. Kipling's works of fiction include The Jungle Book, Kim, and many short stories, including "The Man Who Would Be King". Kipling was born in British India, which inspired much of his work. Myra recites verses from his most famous poem "IF" and concludes with "The waves keep coming, Darlene." Darlene apologizes for the misspelling the word horizon in Myra's video quotation.
