There are too many jokes about Kierkegaard, so I can't decide which one to choose
When it comes to jokes about Socrates, I know nothing
I don’t have a joke about Apollo, just some light banter

I found some old house foundation in the woods. Or it might have been a stonewall.

Behind it was another collection of stones, with smaller rocks in the middle. I wonder who built them and why.
