Find within yourself the path to truth, and you will never steer yourself wrong.
Good Lord, what a load of crap, he thought, sharpening the shovel again.
Rely on my own internal frame of reference to tell me what is the true path? Hell, if I thought my internal compass was true, I'd be in a better place now. Isn't that right, Jenny?
No, I guess you wouldn't have much to say about it, would you?
I never thought we'd be in this position, Jen. I honestly thought we'd make it. But I followed my heart, and that led me to you.
You, and Tommy.
Well, I took care of him, didn't I, Jen? That's something my heart led me to.
Y'know, Jen, I'm kind of glad I used the shovel end and not the handle end. He was a handsome guy, even I have to admit that. Just the kind of fella you'd like, especially after rebounding off of me.
Right, Jen?
Well, I guess it's time. I'm not gonna be able to get it much sharper than this. Bend down, Jen. It'll be quicker.
I said, bend down.
NOW!

Nice. Why bother sharpening it though?

Iapetus999: You ever try cutting someone's head off with a shovel? It dulls the edge like you wouldn't believe. If you don't sharpen it it between, the first one's fine, but every one after that is real work!
