Now that the AI-X and perennial Bowling For Sotweeds Champion has retired from competitive golf or whatever that was he was doing for the several years preceding his retirement, the AI Steering Committee has enlisted James to pen the occasional blog as a window into the life of one entrusted with maintaining the generational continuity of the 1%.
Herewith, his maiden effort:
"You have any job openings down there? I’ll do just about anything to get away from egregiously spoiled, filthy rich, thimble-brained adolescents who all think the world owes them endless favors. (Gee, maybe it’s mid-winter at a boarding school?)
Mid term weekend break begins Saturday 2/4/12 at Noon; classes begin again at 8:25 am Thursday 2/9/12.
During most of that time I hope to be asleep. Our friends the “bruins” have it right: eat bear-like, like you’re at The AI for two weeks, and then, hibernate until it gets warm again.
My hapless hoop team has actually won two games this year (understand that our Frosh boys’ squad had not won a game since Herbert Walker Bush was president). In a spine-tingler against dreaded Church Farm School last Wednesday, in front of no one, we carved out a decisive victory, 24-16, to go 2-3 on the season. I have received inquiries from ESPN 14—for highlights, sound-bites—for ANYTHING…Young Woo Suh, out of Seoul, South Korea, is my leading scorer, averaging just under 7 points a game; he is, thankfully, a skilled shooter of the “baskabaw” (Dick Vitale), but has ZERO interest in playing any other role while he’s on the floor. Defense? Me? Pass the ball? Rebound? Hustle? ME????"
Editors note:
it is unclear whether 'Young' is the boy's name or an adjective
