WHO ARE YOU
Antigen:
The Caterpillar and Alice looked at each other for some time in silence: at last the Caterpillar took the hookah out of its mouth, and addressed her in a languid, sleepy voice.
`Who are YOU?' said the Caterpillar.
This was not an encouraging opening for a conversation. Alice replied, rather shyly, `I--I hardly know, sir, just at present-- at least I know who I WAS when I got up this morning, but I think I must have been changed several times since then.'
`What do you mean by that?' said the Caterpillar sternly. `Explain yourself!'
`I can't explain MYSELF, I'm afraid, sir' said Alice, `because I'm not myself, you see.'
`I don't see,' said the Caterpillar.
`I'm afraid I can't put it more clearly,' Alice replied very politely, `for I can't understand it myself to begin with; and being so many different sizes in a day is very confusing.'
`It isn't,' said the Caterpillar.
`Well, perhaps you haven't found it so yet,' said Alice; `but when you have to turn into a chrysalis--you will some day, you know--and then after that into a butterfly, I should think you'll feel it a little queer, won't you?'
`Not a bit,' said the Caterpillar.
`Well, perhaps your feelings may be different,' said Alice; `all I know is, it would feel very queer to ME.'
`You!' said the Caterpillar contemptuously.
`Who are YOU?'
Which brought them back again to the beginning of the conversation.
Alice felt a little irritated at the Caterpillar's making such VERY short remarks, and she drew herself up and said, very gravely, `I think, you ought to tell me who YOU are, first.'
`Why?' said the Caterpillar.
Here was another puzzling question; and as Alice could not think of any good reason, and as the Caterpillar seemed to be in a VERY unpleasant state of mind, she turned away.
`Come back!' the Caterpillar called after her. `I've something important to say!'
This sounded promising, certainly: Alice turned and came back again.
`Keep your temper,' said the Caterpillar.
`Is that all?' said Alice, swallowing down her anger as well as she could.
`No,' said the Caterpillar.
Alice thought she might as well wait, as she had nothing else to do, and perhaps after all it might tell her something worth hearing.
For some minutes it puffed away without speaking, but at last it unfolded its arms, took the hookah out of its mouth again, and said, `So you think you're changed, do you?'
All religion is dumb. It's one big story they're feeding you so you'll behave on Earth. If there is a god, then he's a prick.

Some days, it's just not worth chewing through the leather straps.
Erinys:
"They told me you had been to her,
And mentioned me to him;
She gave me a good character,
But said I could not swim.
He sent them word I had not gone
(We know it to be true):
If she should push the matter on,
What would become of you?
I gave her one, they gave him two,
You gave us three or more;
They all returned from him to you,
Though they were mine before.
If I or she should chance to be
Involved in this affair,
He trusts to you to set them free,
Exactly as it were.
My notion was that you had been
(Before she had this fit)
An obstacle that came between
Him ourselves and it.
Don't let them know she liked him best,
For this must ever be
A secret kept from all the rest,
Between yourself and me."
When the government's boot is on your throat, whether it is a left boot or a right boot is of no consequence.

Anonymous:
Why is it whenever the topic is the Sudweeks and the abuse allegations against them at the Whitmore--a question always comes up trying deflect the issue to WWASP?
Is WWASP to be our standard? OH, if they aren't as bad as people say WWASP is then they can't be all that bad!
Let's not forget...some of these so-called fine people connected to Whitmore have their own little WWASP connections.
Sue Scheff who referred most of our children to Whitmore is a WWASP ALUMNI herself---she help recruit many a kid into WWASP programs as a dedicated WWASP Mom.
And Mark Sudweeks has been tied to WWWASP in his connection to New Hope Academy as posted on this site and on ISAC.
This site is about Whitmore Academy---and just because some may consider WWASP to be "badder" just does not make any parent whose child was abused at Whitmore feel any better becase a child in some other program may have had it a little worse. ABUSE IS ABUSE.
