Today's reality is that when it rains, it rains acid.

Robert F. Kennedy That1s not my job 11 This is a story about four people named Somebody, Everybody, Anybody and Nobody. There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it but nobody did it. Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody'd job. Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it. It ended up with Everybody blaming Somebody, when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.
