30 October 2009: Halloween, Part One
Paul October 30th, 2009
Students at the University of Kansas frequently tell me that, on first meeting me, they find me intimidating and scary. And so, with Halloween coming up, I guess there is no need for me to look for Sarah Palin, Michael Steele, Michele Bachmann, Joe Lieberman, or Liz and Dick Cheney “two-for-the-price-of-one” face masks. I’ll just simply be myself and let people see what they want to see—The Bruised Lee! The Jackie-o’-Chantern! The Fulsome Manchu! The Inscrutable Asian! The Yellow Peril! BOO!

I didn’t think you were intimidating or scary when I first met you… but I’m not a wilting flower with professors like many college students. I thought you were a bit brusk, but ultimately that made sense in a room full of playwriting “virgins”.
