Love Al

BBI Teacher's picture
As I grew into manhood, I realized something about my adventures (or misadventures) with my uncle Al. The more time I spent trying to outwit him, the more I learned about the world we all live in everyday. I sometimes wonder is this what learning is really all about. Is that how I was learning by questioning things or making up stories that attempted to explain simple or complicated occurrences in the world? One thing I do know is my uncle Al never got angry with me about those stories. He is gone now, passing away several years ago. However, those memories with the babysitter of death and the many interesting things that I learned from him, I'll carry with me forever. I can't wait until I become the next babysitter of death, neices and nephews be warned!
