Well, if you want the truth, it was because I was totally bored and had nothing better to do. Just read it and shut up, ok? As I sit here in study hall, I begin to realize that this has to be one of the most boring places in school. Looking around me, I notice that desolation and boredom fills the faces of the many youths required to sit at these enormous tables normally used for lunching. Examining closer I notice the many types of folk held captive here. Today, many girls outfitted in field hockey uniforms are residing here, along with others you could possibly call girls. As I look even further I take notice of the "Proud To Be Italian" type gentle- men (if you can call them that) who concentrate mostly on Italian supremacy. There is an innumerable amount of black T-shirted types sporting Metallica's many logos, and well, there are others; but to me, they are unnoticeable. The teachers walk up and down the aisles, pacing as if they were expectant fathers, making it known that "THIS IS A SILENT STUDY HALL." At odd moments, a slight noise or two might break the silence. Perhaps the tearing of paper out of a spiral notebook, the sickly cough of an ill prisoner not permitted to go to the school nurse, or even the common scuffing of feet as they walk through the extremely large cafeteria. It's not often that I analyze activities such as this but today I'm getting my money's worth. To many, this place is considered a jail of sorts. At times, it can seem to hold its common title, but at the moment it just seems to be a place to think about the world and the people keeping it in a constant rotation. Actually, at this point in time, I'd like to place many of these study hall hostages in a jail for a day or so. Just let them sit, without friends, with- out life, without anything but a small, empty cubicle; then maybe they'd realize that this place isn't as bad as their ignorant minds make it. Next time you're sitting in a study hall, or any other class for that matter, being "held captive" just take a minute and realize how lucky you are. Some people would give all possessions to frequent your "jail" in place of their own. ----Racer X, 9/27/88, EST: 09:16:06 AM. _______________________________________________________________________________ Behavior Modification.....806/793-9462 The Dead Zone.............214/522-5321 Demon Roach Underground...806/794-4362 Dragonfire Private........609/424-2606 Question Authority........715/341-6516 TacoLand II...............517/337-7319 Tequila Willy's...........209/526-3194 The Metal AE..............201/879-6668 =============================================================================== (c)1988 cDc communications by Racer X 10/6/88-77 All Rights Worth Shit
