Can't Make This Up

"Mr. Reynolds?"

"Yes," I say as I'm about to get up from taking attendance and start class.

"Can I run to Pennington Main to get a pop?"

"What? You were late for class? Why didn't you just get one then?" I ask, grabbing the quizzes for chapters 10 and 11 of The Jungle.

"I was late coming home from lunch, though . . ."

Somewhere billions of Indians and Chinese are laughing.
