The story of George and Ira

[teach1st]

One day at school, Sammie and some of his schoolmates ganged up on George and beat him up. One of George's best friends, Aaron, helped Sammie beat up George. George tried to find Sammie but couldn't. Georgie couldn't beat up Aaron, because Aaron gave George lunch money all the time, and his family had a business with Aaron's family. So George decided to beat up Ira, who nobody in the class liked and who was in the principal's office when George got jumped. After all, Ira threatened George's dad a few year's back and, besides, George wanted Ira's lunch money.

The teacher asked George why he beat up Ira. George responded, "Because I was attacked!"

3. I thought this thread was going to be about the Gershwins

But yes, why doesn't anyone call George out on linking 9/11 and Iraq? He continues to get away with it.

4. The juvenile angle is a perfect match. Little boys playing games and

getting even and wanting and taking it all. Except it is with lives, pasts, hopes, peace, and the dismal possible futures of some countries.

Edited to add "TOO" to my subject line after seeing another great mind already said the same thing. :)
