If you had green on, it was a real neat affair. When • I was in fourth grade, St. Patrick's Day slipped my mind, and I arrived home at its end an angry and much-pinched little boy. A couple of weeks later, I had a dream. In it, my mother told me about a cool new holiday called Green Thursday that workedjust like St. Patrick's • Day. I woke up and, indeed, it was Thursday. So I put on a green shirt and headed to school, and I spread the word around class quickly before re cess. " On the playground, I gathered up my meager green-clad army and gave the orders: "You know what to do. It's Green Thursday." Soon, the playground was alive with running, pinching and screaming kids. It was great. Sud denly, across the way, I saw a little girl telling on us. As the teacher bent down, the girl pointed a purposeful little finger, and the teacher's scornful countenance fell upon ... me. I was busted. In the lunchroom, I was interrogated at the teachers' table. When I told the teacher that Green Thursday was a mom-sanctioned holiday, she got furious and insisted I bring in written proof. I knew I couldn't bring the letterin, so Ijust took my punishment. As I sat in detention writing sentences ("I will not make up a holiday and blame my mother for it"), I thought about what I'd learned. You can't just make up a holiday, espe cially one where people get pinched. But, I thought to myself, ifyou're willing to take the heat, you can really mess with people. Incidentally, you might want to wear green this Thursday. • FREE March 29 FREE • FREE 7 & 9 p.m . FREE Student Activities Nick Nolte Center THREE FUGITIVES Ho Joke ...
