Premium Member Moving Mountains
I will move mountains for you, oft said  with little brain and surplus testosterone. But why the plurality? Surely, a single mountain moved is Herculean enough to satisfy the desires of the most covetous princess. Then, what is a mountain? I’m sure a mound or hill won’t do.

When the poem became tears As the ink drips, I have become an emotional basket case. My keyboard squeals, as the businessman's anxiety climbs At the sound of the opening bells, Tariff wars targeting the poor, Evil Eyes merges with the Texas Tycoons What is the poor trader's offense?

Division a realm we can calculate; but, when it comes to continuity, it is an age old question -- Our human heart, an imperfect perfect example: beats can be quantified; but feelings have a strange math all their own...often outside of measurable reason. ...
