Nothing new there...the elementary school that I attended in the

You had a playground? And Recess? Wow. You were one of the
priviliged kids, weren't you?

All we had was a hole in the ground, and they wouldn't even let us
use that. All we could do was stare longingly at the hole, hoping
against hope that we could somehow someday get into that soft cool
dark depression to blot out the monotony that was childhood. But we
were grateful for at least having that small amount of hope.


I'll bet you walked two miles to school each day through driving snow,
and three miles back, eh?


School? Who said anything about a school? An actual school would have
been a luxury. It was just a hole. And we weren't even allowed to use
that.
