Such a Pleasure to Employ
And as long as I'm continuing to write about things I wrote about at Gawker, except to an audience of three or four (and hell, why not keep using the funny pictures I found?), here's a bit of today's "Metropolitan Diary":Although deemed too young to enter kindergarten, the granddaughter of my friend Sue Teich was nevertheless granted an interview at a selected school.
The interviewer asked the child if she could count to 10. The child obeyed and proceeded to count from one to 10 without missing a beat.
"That was excellent," the interviewer said. "Now can you count backward?"
The child turned her back to the interviewer and began again without missing a beat, "One, two, three ..."
If only creativity were the criteria for admission.
Twice. Twice in one fucking cute kid anecdote.
They are mocking me. |
