agreeing on something!

actually we agree on quite a bit

he's the only other person in the monastery who believes that the white noise is oppressive

our musical interests and our poetic interests are in fact similar

he thinks luther is a saint
i happen to dismiss the guy as
a dyspeptic and cantankerous theologian at best - an opportunist - a good lutenist - but no saint - no way dude

"Everyone's a saint
and everyone's a sinner."

--John McGill (a line from one of his songs)

I am realizing now that I don't
really know what the word
"dyspeptic" means.

It sounds like it describes someone with a constant stomach ache.

That would be enough to make anyone cantankerous.
