The Monday Morning Memo

The Hulbert quote about children needing love is accurate, sweet, and powerful.
But when taken in context with his involvement in the defense of
murderers Leopold and Loeb, it becomes an altogether different thing.


SEINFELD
Jerry Seinfeld refers to Leopold and Loeb in the episode “The Junior Mint”
when he voices misgivings to Kramer about their illicit secret of
a candy piece in a recuperating surgery patient's peritoneal cavity.
Jerry says “I can't have this on my conscience. We're like Leopold and Loeb!”


THE GILMORE GIRLS
During a dream sequence, Lorelai Gilmore,
pregnant with twins, tells her dream husband Luke
that she has decided to name their unborn children Leopold and Loeb.

In another episode Lorelai's mother sets her up on a date
with a neighbor whose two Dobermans are named Leopold and Loeb.

Random Quote:

“And after a long time the boy came back again.

‘I am sorry, boy,’ said the tree, ‘but I have nothing left to give you. My apples are gone.’

‘My teeth are too weak for apples,’ said the boy.

‘My branches are gone,’ said the tree, ‘you cannot swing on them.’

‘I am too old to swing on branches,’ said the boy.

‘My trunk is gone,’ said the tree, ‘you cannot climb.’

‘I am too tired to climb,’ said the boy.

‘I am sorry,’ sighed the tree, ‘I wish I could give you something, but I have nothing left. I am just an old stump. I am sorry.’

‘I don’t need very much now,’ said the boy, ‘just a quiet place to sit and rest. I am very tired.’

‘Well,’ said the tree, straightening herself up as much as she could, ‘ an old stump is good for sitting and resting. Come, boy. Sit down and rest.’

And the boy did.

And the tree was happy.

 “

- Shel Silverstein, The Giving Tree, 1964
