Today we talked about how Socrates hates Maryland crabs and soft crabs which literally just blew my mind, but I guess I get it if you don't grow up on the Easter shore. Then my fellow classmates introduced their shadows and we moved on. We talked a little bit about site and location, but for the most part we talked about crabs and how weird Socrates is, just kidding Bob.
