10 Or pick that moldy pizza off his rug,
11 Or empty his ashtray,
12 Or turn off his TV,
13 Or hang up his phone,
14 Or deposit that wad of bills in the bank?
15 And does it matter that he is sitting there,
16 In the middle of the mess,
17 aGiving us the finger?
18 bAfter all, he was only a boy,
19 cAnd his parents didn't seem to mind,
20 So why should we care,
21 dAnd what business is it of ours anyway?
CHAPTER 41 There is a very nice picture of Harry taken in high school,
2 Where the Drama Club picked him to play eHenry Drummond,
3 For some reason,
4 Which explains why he is wearing suspenders,
5 And a collarless shirt,
6 And white hair,
7 And a scornful look on his face.
CHAPTER 51 Harry's yearbook picture is also very nice,
2 And shows him grinning into the camera,
3 fWearing a jacket and tie,
4 gJust like everyone else.
5 It also looks like Harry was very active in extracurricular activities,
6 At least for the first couple of hyears,
7 Because he has lots of stuff listed,
8 Including Cross Country 1,
9 iCamera Club 1,
10 jYearbook 1,

18 Not to mention the fact that he was voted "Most Likely to Escape to South America."
CHAPTER 61 The parents of Harry made a home movie of his graduation from high school,
2 Which shows him getting his diploma from the rprincipal,
3 Who looks unhappy for some reason,
4 sAlthough Harry is grinning,
5 Probably because he is so proud of graduating from high school,
6 Which he must be,
7 tOr why would he grin like that?
8 The movie also shows the graduation party at Harry's house,
9 Which looks like an average sort of house in the usuburbs,
10 vJust like Beaver Cleaver lived in,
11 wWith a five-year-old station wagon in the driveway,
12 Parked right next to a brand new xPontiac GTO,
13 yWhich must be Harry's graduation present,
14 Because you can see Harry's parents giving him the keys,
15 And smiling like crazy,
16 Even though zHarry's dad doesn't quite succeed in getting the beer out of his son's hand,
17 And even though aaHarry's mom doesn't quite succeed in getting a kiss,
