"I think this was written in the 30's. This is one that I bought for little Arnaud, because what sailing teaches us is that tying knots is very important. Sometimes, for our very survival. How many times have we thought to ourselves, "Oh, my raft with the few vital foodstuffs left over from the shipwreck floated off because my rope became untied." Or: "All our oxygen tanks fell down the side of the mountain because the rope became untied." It shouldn't happen to him. Or any of us."
"This is the first book I was required to read in kindergarten.
It all boiled down to a fierce competition between myself and Nicole Thompson. We were the smartest kids in kindergarten (ECC 90, Buffalo, Ny), and we knew it. Though I secretly feared her intelligence, I was able to overcome the obstacle of having to read on my own and at a pace that surpassed my peers. Victory was mine.
I was handsomely rewarded with an evening gala at the Radisson hotel in downtown Buffalo, Ny. Receiving accolades from my teacher, whose name I don't recall, a nice dinner, and some sort of certificate. I was dressed in my best threads and clip-on tie. The following day I was smeared with adoration from my fellow classmates. A girl I had a crush on, Abigail, kissed me on the cheek, while Nicole kissed my opposite cheek, simultaneously.
