A special thanks to Skip Trace for some exceptional editing |
|
help! |
|
I have been cooking and working this story for a month but it |
|
finally came to fruition. |
|
From the opening: |
|
No one has ever accused twelve-year-old boys of having the best |
|
decision-making skills when it comes to matters of judgement. |
|
Add in boredom and a novel distraction and the chances of the |
|
boy acting reasonably decrease exponentially. Such was the |
|
situation when I was in the sixth grade sitting in my class |
|
pretending to listen to Mrs. Malone drone on about the proper |
|
usages of capital letters. It was on a Tuesday, the seventh of |
|
December in 1971. My best friend at the time, Brent McDonald, |
|
and I were sitting at the back of the classroom near a corner. |
|
Mrs. Malone allowed us students to sit where we wanted so Brent |
|
and I liked to sit where we could fly under the radar. |
|
Told from the point of view of Spencer Matthews about a day he |
|
ceased to "fly under the radar." |
|
Thanks for reading! |
