So, what’s been rattling though Andrew’s head in the last week that he hasn’t cared to share? Honestly, not all that much. There, I said it. I’ve been leading a boring life recently. I guess I can start at the beginning, though.

These are the same people, may I remind you, that had no prediction about six [...]
