Our diet was the picture of perfection: raw dairy, gras…

Katie is always asking me random questions about how things work, and I'm always explaining them. To which she then responds, "How the hell do you know all this random stuff?" I don't know. I read a lot, I went to school, I have a degree, I just pick stuff up here and there. Basically in the end, I know a little bit about a lot of things. A few day…
