It all boils down to a flagrant abuse of power. These people are so drunk on themselves that they step over the line right and left and any which way you look at it. None of this has any business happening in an institution ostensibly created for the purpose of educating kids.
And the kids don?t know any better. You are at a time of your life where you are oh-so-impressionable and confused about a LOT of things, and you have grownups passing themselves off as the closest thing to Gandhi, filled with all sorts of high falutin? ideals about character. And the next thing you know, you piss one of them off or do the wrong tihing and you branded as essentially and integrally and totally a failure for life... That there is something wrong with you at the CORE... Who are these people passing such supreme judgement?
Character, my ass. I say cult cult cult.

You know, the more I think about it the harder it is to argue.
She was about 20 at the time so Lolita is a lillte bit of a stretch, but not much. Joe was about my age at the time. I remember how beautiful dream weaver was. My daughter has friends that are just about as hot as she was. You know what comes to mind is Jan Holland. She use to say "You are sick, sick, sick!"
Here is a guy that raised three kids in a house with an active alcoholic telling you that you are screwed up, then hitting on a girl that was YOUNGER then his oldest daughter. Yup character all right. A real role model for us all.

Yeah, Jan had a nicely acerbic take on the place. I didn?t dare get to know her. I was too perfused with the Kool-Aid at the time, harboring hopeless notions that surely they would realize how hard I was trying, how much I believed, and how earnest my intentions?
And that just gets me. Cuz so many kids were in just that boat, and Hyde saw fit to capsize that boat on them as ? in that tremendous and infinite capacity for the discernment of character that only Hyde can have ? Hyde found them wanting, lacking in character, or perhaps lacking the charisma and devotion necessary to scion the next generation of Galled-a-linis to carry on the cause.
In retrospect, of course, I consider myself most blessed.

I had no hyde kool-aide. Had some of the electric kind in summer school. There was a guy in the outhouse that had a picture of a toad on the wall. He had a sheet of blotter acid behind the picture. I remember being in the room with him and having Henry Milton come in. Old Henry looked directly at the picture and comented on it. You have never really experiance Henry until you listen to him give you a lecture on resonsiblity as his face is melting into his torso. I have a fond memory of him looking like a picasso cubist rendering.
I never spoke in a school meeting unless spoken to directly. It was my own personal rule. Joe tried to may a school meeting about me once. He did a imitation of me being defeated at a wrestling match. "I wonder how that must have felt. It must have been really humiliating" he said as he glared at me. I just sat there and glared back. He releaized he was not going to crack me and moved on to something else. I never broke a rule during the two regular years I was in attendance. I never turned anyone in. I never confronted anybodies attitide. Patrick Magoonan in the "Prisoner" was my role model. Worked for me.

One of the most laughable features of Hyde is Joe Gauld's portrait of himself as a virtuous model of good character. It's hard for me to identify anyone else I've ever come across in my lifetime who qualifies as a bigger hypocrite. I wonder if current Hyde parents know his personal history and have any sense of Gauld's gall. Few things in life make me angrier than my memories of Gauld and his cronies telling other people (more like preaching) how to live their lives when they're perfect examples of qualities I DON'T admire or want to emulate. The only reason to listen to Joe Gauld and many others at Hyde is to learn how NOT to live a life. I feel so sorry for parents who pay Hyde even a dime and enroll their kids. What a waste.
