A wonderful conversation with the son of a Puddle Pirate.

By Kendra S. from Academy of the Redwoods in California

“I’d like to be remembered as that nerd that was like, semi-liked in high school. Um, but then committed mass crime in their late 20’s and spent most of their 30’s and 40’s in jail. Then was released to no avail, and then led a boring life from then on.”

“I like to remember my Great Grandmother. She was always funny, quick witted, good with a joke. Then she keeled over and died...R.I.P. Grandma, I don’t remember your name. I’m going to Hell, I’m just going to keel over and die just like my Great Grandma.”
