Quote of the week.
Sep. 9th, 2003 11:32 pmI just remembered something that happened in a high school course on civics, on how our government worked. The teacher asked each us to stand up in turn and tell what we did after school. I was sitting in the back of the room, sitting next to a guy named J.T. Alburger. He later became an insurance man in Los Angeles. He died fairly recently. Anyway--he kept nudging me, urging me, daring me to tell the truth about what I did after school. He offered me five dollars to tell the truth. He wanted me to stand up and say, "I make model airplanes and jerk off."
