What was your most memorable or favorite school field trip?
I think it was in high school when we went to Greensboro to see some Shakespeare play. "Taming of the Shrew"? "King Lear"? Something like that.
Anyway, as we got on the bus to go back home, my friend Ben and I were looking out the window when we saw this guy walking along with a slightly funny gait. My friend Ben lowered the window and yelled "Hey crip!" The guy didn't hear him (thankfully) but when he did turn around, it was obvious he was missing not only a leg but an arm as well.
Ben felt awful about callnig him a crip when he actually was handicapped, but I never ever let him forget that moment, even 15 years later.
