One of Selden's favorite poems:
The Pasture
by Robert Frost,
Support Free Speach
When they took the fourth amendment,
I was quiet because I didn't deal drugs.
When they took the sixth amendment,
I was quiet because I was innocent.
When they took the second amendment,
I was quiet because I didn't own a gun.
Now they've taken the first amendment,
and I can say nothing about it.

Pastor Martin Niemöller 's statement, although there are other
versions.
According to the Chinese Zodiac, I was born in a year of the Dog:
Loyal and honest, you work well with others. Generous yet stubborn and often
selfish. Look to the Horse or Tiger. Watch out for Dragons.
Well, maybe.
