  Thank you for giving me the opportunity to become a matriculating student at the University of Scranton. I have had many interesting experiences in my life. I will represent the school well. I work hard and am a quick study. I have a wide variety of interests and I am dedicated to—Wait.
  But the most important thing to know about me, what you really need to grok in order to understand what kind of student you'll be getting, is that I, Harbinger Robert Francis Jones, am a coward.
  I just counted and "coward" was word number 248, and that doesn't even include the date or your address, so I should stop. But I can't believe you know me any better yet, and that was your goal, right? So with your permission—strike that, with or without your permission—I'm going to exceed that word count, just a little.
  An older and much larger boy stood over me, blotting out the sun. "You weren't god damn here when we chose up the god damn sides." He was trying on curse words the way a little girl tries on her mother's shoes.

conversations.value: It was probably the most personal and tender moment my father and I ever shared, and I clung to it the way a dying man clings to a priest's robes. The advice and the money were proof that his love was unconditional—twisted and weird proof, but proof just the same. And like the Grinch, my heart, at least the way it felt about my dad, grew a size or two that day.
  Then my father was gone and the gears in my brain lurched back to the Scar Boys. We piled into Dino, certain we were ready for whatever the world was going to throw at us.

conversations.value: Thank you to my parents for instilling in me a love of the written word. Thank you, Oren Teicher and everyone at ABA, for the ceaseless encouragement and support, especially Mark Nichols. Thank you, Chris Finan, for all the good writing advice.
  And last, but not least, thanks to the real Woofing Cookies: Joe Loskywitz, Scott Nafz, and Chad Strohmayer. The adventures we had together as kids formed the backdrop of Harry's tale. This story is their story as much as it is my own. Their friendship has and will always mean the world to me.
