Action is eloquence, Shakespeare said. And yet so much happens between the action, in the quiet, between our ears, among the Hows and Whys and What Ifs we can articulate, and the Huhs we cant. Here we must consult our great philosopher from Alabama, one Charles Barkley: If ifs were gifts, every day would be Christmas. ~ from the Introduction by Kyle Minor.
