Sir,

When last I attended High School the name "Goodman" was associated only
with Egg Noodles. My observations of modern high School students are based
primarily on my position as the grumpy old man who sits on his porch whilst
hooligans walk curbside in loosely organized wolf packs howling melodic
obscenities in some strange threatening tongue, wearing the dress of what
appears to be clothing they rummaged from the good will bin, the shoes of
clowns which they do not even bother to lace properly, and they seem to
walk as if they suffer from some rare joint disease. I have yet to see one
with a musical instrument case but I am delighted when I see the occasional
book in hand or a sack on the back :-D
