Jonathan D. Scott is the owner of a small advertising and graphic design firm in the Southeast. He is married with two daughters and is a very ordinary person, or at least appears so to the casual observer. (Originally appeared 2009-05-18)

Really, you'd think H.W. Longfellow would have known better than to write something like that ...

The shadowy recesses of the curtains, the soft sound of steps upon the wooden dais, the splendor of the lights...theater! Nothing like it!
