I am going to learn how to do this, and then, when no one expects it, I’m just going to whip it out. Yes, I am aware I’ll probably set myself on fire. If I pull this off just once it’ll be worth it. “Hey man, you remember that time Stockwell spat out a goddamn ball of fire? “It was awesome.” Worth it.

The best thing about it was that we didn’t actually tell Luke, Jack or Kaya that I was going to be doing it. In the end, we just did it right in front of them, and Kaya’s scream is genuine. Totally genuine. She jumped, almost literally, out of her seat. Luke’s face is completely genuine, and Jack’s laugh is genuine too.

The sleep of reason produces monsters. But I’ve always thought some of these monsters were kind of cute.

If rock’n’roll doesn’t make you laugh, you may find you’re doing it wrong.

“Science investigates; religion interprets. Science gives man knowledge which is power; religion gives man wisdom which is control. Science deals mainly with facts; religion deals mainly with values.The two are not rivals. They are complementary. Science keeps religion from sinking into the valley of crippling irrationalism and paralyzing obscurantism. Religion prevents science from falling into the marsh of obsolete materialism and moral nihilism.”

- Martin Luther King, Jr.

“It’s Okay to be Neither,” By Melissa Bollow Tempel

Alie arrived at our 1st-grade classroom wearing a sweatshirt with a hood. I asked her to take off her hood, and she refused. I thought she was just being difficult and ignored it. After breakfast we got in line for art, and I noticed that she still had not removed her hood. When we arrived at the art room, I said: “Allie, I’m not playing. It’s time for art. The rule is no hoods or hats in school.”

She looked up with tears in her eyes and I realized there was something wrong. Her classmates went into the art room and we moved to the art storage area so her classmates wouldn’t hear our conversation. I softened my tone and asked her if she’d like to tell me what was wrong.

“My ponytail,” she cried.

“Can I see?” I asked.

She nodded and pulled down her hood. Allie’s braids had come undone overnight and there hadn’t been time to redo them in the morning, so they had to be put back in a ponytail. It was high up on the back of her head like those of many girls in our class, but I could see that to Allie it just felt wrong. With Allie’s permission, I took the elastic out and re-braided her hair so it could hang down.

“How’s that?” I asked.

She smiled. “Good,” she said and skipped off to join her friends in art.
