We all have our dualities, but Rollins’s are either more interesting2012-05-26-why-do-anything-by-half, or more present.

It starts with the weighted questions we use to measure the other, the ones we fear the answer to so much that the tickle to ask is greater than any rational voice telling us that presence of a behavior or isn’t grounds to dismiss a person, shreik, or end the date - and if it were, do we really want to ask that single question halfway into this 2-hour car ride? Probably not.
