Description

Here's cold, creamy treat for those of you waiting with baited breath for the upcoming Simpsons movie. When Mr. Burns croons "Excellent," is he really happy, or just chasing the next hollow goal? Although we all may think that happiness is made up of loosing hounds on unsuspecting Girl Scouts, Daniel Barwick proves that authentic happiness consists of more than merely instrumental goods. This essay will make you rub your hands together in glee.
