Leave Your Notebook At Home

Remember eighth grade English class, when you sat in the back of the room, doodling D&D characters into your notebook, only marginally paying attention to the teacher? You were an angst-ridden little guy, defiant to a fault, but when it came time to discuss Beowulf you perked right up and actually participated. Why? Because Beowulf was righteous shit! Man-hungry trolls, mighty warriors wielding huge swords, dudes literally ripping off peoples’ limbs – this zany Saxon poetry was ten-times cooler than the liner notes to Led Zeppelin IV! Pretty soon, you’d be scribbling pictures of Grendel and Hrothgar into your notebook while dreaming up the bloody, chaotic battle scenes in your mind’s eye.
