Harrison Bergeron

My father, my high-school sophomore English teacher, my music theory professor, an advertising copywriter with whom I work: all people who have suggested I read Kurt Vonnegut.

I still hadn't read any, until today.

Today I stumbled, completely by accident, across Harrison Bergeron, a lesson on the dangers of mistaking rights and outcomes. Wow, good stuff. Now I want to read more.
