My daughter went to University of Chicago, now she is working as stripper because she can’t get into med school. she has $125,000 in student loans.

I don’t want to go pre-med, but yes, grad school…and a PhD program? Does that mean I need to do twice the amount of stripping? Or just find a classier establishment that pays better?

These are the types of big questions I will ponder about over my next four years of college.

The book was intended, of course, to feature fillies, foals and mares. Editor Ursula Nordstrom adored the title, finding it poetic and beautiful, but there was one problem: Sendak couldn’t draw horses.

When he told his editor that the whole horse thing wasn’t going to work out, he recalls her “acid tone[d]” response: “Maurice, what can you draw?” 

“Things,” he said. And “things” he drew.

Thank you for sharing your “things” with me, Maurice.
