- It began with a basketball game. Mike Dichter and I went up for the same rebound, and I accidentally stuck my elbow in his chest. Then Mike stuck his elbow in my chest, pointed a finger at me, and told me to watch out. In those days I had a reputation for toughness to maintain, so I told him that he better watch out, and on the next rebound neither of us watched out and both of us got elbows in the chest. Then we started shoving each other under the basket and pointing fingers and making threatening faces, which was fine with me because looking threatening was one of the things I did best.

- “Do you really think you can take him?” he asked me.Since Kevin had always been one of my most loyal and servile followers, I was astonished by his doubt in my physical prowess.“I know I can take him,” I said.“He’s three inches taller than you,” Kevin said.“So?”“He’s really strong.”“I’m really strong.”Kevin shrugged. “Okay,” he said, “but I think Mike could take you.
- The next day in school everything proceeded as usual. I listened to the teachers, took notes, fell asleep, made a few uncalled-for remarks, and gazed at Denise Young’s legs.During lunch I was sitting with a tableful of friends,
