Rover: How was school?! Red: Excellent! We made cutouts of the first thanksgiving feast.Teacher said my scissors skills were unusually creative. I armed my defenseless turkey with a hubley atomic disintegrator ray gun. Rover: Of course you did.
JAD I LOVED school, until I had my imagination curtailed by teachers. You sound just like them! Learn this. Memorize that. NONE ever asked for our opinion or how we could do something different, whether it was better or worse. Just do it THIS way. And if I sound just a little bitter well, in freshman year I ran afoul of a “teacher” who to this day I have never forgiven or forgotten. I can truly say, with utmost sincerity, I did LEARN what the true definition of a “sadist” is!!
