On the subject of love:

"I have a demon in my house--you know the kind of demon that breaks things, clogs the sink, makes the toilet not work...Do you know how to get rid of a demon? You get rid of a demon with a thing I call 'chubby love.' Can any of you guess what 'chubby love' is?" "You get 'chubby love' when you have a great aunt with bright red lipstick who gives you smoochy kisses and everything else of the sort...demons hate that. Of course, you have to find the demon first..."

Taken verbatim from my math notes today...I love my math professor.
Much love--chubby and otherwise--to you all.
