I'm only posting here out of pure self-indulgence and to change my thinking to less somber topics.
So....I can only imagine Bapu's first day in English Class. He would have stated, "I ain't gotta take no english!!"
Bapu tells the story of how he used to walk 2 miles to school in 3 feet of snow, uphill. Then uphill on the way home too.
He also tells that his mom put hot potatoes in his pockets to keep him warm, then he would eat the potatoes for lunch because that is all he had.
One day he traded his potatoes to a fella named Jens Ritter for a bass guitar. Jens was a bit stupid back then.
The next day his friends bet him a pair of Velvet strings that he would not put his tongue on the frozen flagpole. Bapu was stupid back then.
The rest, as they say, is history.
