"I have been privileged to know the wizard's apprentice for many years. Always thought-provoking and sometimes prescient, his observations and wisdom not only entertain, but often provide an alternative view of reality. Popular insights may be incorrect and even the wizard is not infallible, but I feel compelled to begin my day with his musings."
