A story about a real teacher.

learn one thing in comm class: context context context

A few years ago I was at a large dinner party, and it so happened that the two people I was making dinner conversation with were both identical twins. It was interesting, and I started feeling like there was something wrong with there only being one of me.

Yesterday I was walking around with three other people who I have just met. It struck me that all three of them own, and fly, their own planes.

So, yeah, what's considered normal is totally a matter of where you are, and who you're with.

(They're tall, too, the pilots. At 5'8" I was the short one.)
