Learning du Jour

I've read my share of books, and I've even read my share of Tom Hardy (we all remember The Curious Case of the Curiously Specific Burglar, after all), but not once in my entire life have I ever seen “without" used as a synonym for "outside." 

Hmm. Lookit me...always learning, always optimizing.

Sigh. XMASTIME: Great American Role Model. 😔
