So I'm about 3 days shy of the deadline for this Flaubert piece for this norcal rag and I cant come up with anything. The way it's going it's gonna be about his short story A Simple Heart and how it relates to Silkworm's Blueblood ("It's nice to hear I'm not cold as ice"). Thank god for wikipedia, where all morons converge. Supposedly Flaubert said this:

To be stupid, and selfish, and to have good health are the three requirements for happiness; though if stupidity is lacking, the others are useless.

Methinks this is the thunderbolt.

Thank you, stupid internets!
