The Man in the Truck: Segment 25

We were in English class one day when my teacher asked us to recite a lyrical ballad in the front of the class which we could sing as a song if we wanted to, or as a poem site-read from heart. I flipped through the text pages until I got to a Medieval Scottish one titled "Get Up and Bar the Door", a 45 –line poem next to a black and white drawing of a husband, and a wife with a turban wrapped around her head. I read the story twice: about a couple during Christmas time whose door keeps…

easter

i was supposed to go to passover on friday night but i missed that since i was working all day and forgot to check the time: 5p. i don’t know who i offended more, my father or the rest of the catholic congregation for being a jew and wearing my star of david necklace. i drove by a church that looked like a castle, snooped around and found out all of a sudden when loud music started to play that a service was starting so i stayed to find out.

i read the whole catholic liturgy book…

things i learned while camping

1. im just as scared at night except there's less hospitals around. so i have an appreciation for the city because if someone broke in it wouldn't take an officer 30 m to get there

2.i like to wear colored jeans no matter where i go..so if this means falling in a swamp then i guess it will be all the more noticeable on my purple jeans

3. when i go to the beach near a campgrounds i bank on it being warm so i bring only a sweatshirt.my optimisim does not prevail: count…
