I read about the puppet camp, and I immediately thought of the Marple Index. ;)

It says something about how indoctrinated this kid is that at the age of 13, he's talking about how much fun social justice workshops are, in a Stepford child-like sort of way. I don't know about most people, but when I was 13, I spent my summer alternating between riding my bike with my friends, fishing, shooting at things, and trying to figure out a way to get the girl who lived three houses down to notice me.

And anyone that had suggested puppet camp to me...I don't know how I would have reacted, but I don't think puppet camp would have interested me. Not without a lobotomy first, but then again, I didn't get that crap pushed on me from birth like this poor kid probably did.

Ha! Glad to see you here this morning. Today we will further explore the puppet problem.

In my opinion, Lambchop was the way we were tricked into believing puppets were harmless. I am suspicious of ALL big puppets.

Barney the Dinosaur: I rest my case.

In seventh grade our social studies teacher asked the class (comprised of good wholesome non Ithacan upstate farm kids) if we'd be interested in doing a puppet class. We glared at him. He backed right down. He eventually became a republican.

If the girl 3 doors down had been at puppet camp you would have been begging your parents to send you.
