Smith's I Live in a Hut has a deceptively simple title, considering that the brain in that hut contains galaxies-worth of invention: At night when your soldiers are praying ceaselessly for less rain and more underwear my soldiers make underwear out of rain.

They were close.” KnowsWellsDoneCharacterWantedTogetherJobsWinningSpeakUnitedPlayerIncrediblesI RealizedBobStaffChampionshipNba ChampionshipsVersatilityRosters Author:Steve Kerr
