Bring only your ears...

Greetings,

Continuing our sage saga trauma triage the Chinese teacher resumed her Lecture...

"Well now, you see," she emphasized with unknowing cautionary tales, "we are a Confused Confucian based morality. Take the high ethical moral ground, be the silent majority. Practice conformity."

"Abject advice," said an illuminated 14-year old middle school boy looking up from the chess board after castling early to protect his king. His developed pieces protected the middle way.

"My teacher said we should only bring two things to class. Our ears."

"Serious educational tools, ears."
"Yes, he told us to leave food, liquid, books, pens, toys, our eyes and mouth at home. Bring only your ears to my class!"

"Yes, your ears gives him something to twist and turn when he wants to discipline you."
"Yes, my education is an rueful earful."

Peace.
