God bless the man...
... who chaperoned a gaggle of teenagers in Boston's Public Garden today and wore an utterly self-abnegating sweater, so that the kids who seemed only to disrespect him would be able to find him easily in case they got a little lost.

Both your photo caption "Man in a ridiculous sweater" and the expression on the pink shirted girl's face are hilarious.
What a guy! You gotta love it.
Sorry, you shouldn't say such things.
I think the kids were perfectly nice kids, maybe a little embarrassed to be seen with him. They kept calling out "Hey, you in the shirt." But I think it was actually a very un-dysfunctional group. The girl on the right reminds me a little of Joan of Arcadia -- acting like a teenager, but on some level loving the protective adults in her life. The boys to the left seem the same way. The guy in the sweater: I just love him!
CB: I considered "functional" and rejected it.
It reminds me of the high school football coach I knew who wore a bright pink shirt on the sidelines so his players could find him in the sea of faces. It worked. No one ever had trouble finding him on the sidelines.
Non-dysfuctional is an excellent term. I think it illustrates quite well the way that we view dysfunctionality as the normal state.
The girl seems to find amusing whatever sweater guy is saying.
What is with the boy in the center drinking from what appears to be a bottle in a brown bag?
I used to have a bright yellow sweatshirt emblazoned on the front with the words Et Vous Circus and a large picture of a colorful rooster. It was similarly ridiculous and, throughout my 20s, I wore it proudl (usually alond with a pair of bright yellow corduroy capri pants).
I only wish I still had that sweatshirt because I'd wear it the next time I go along with my middle-schooler's class on a field trip.
Ok, now I have to know what Dave said?
Censorship? From a Republican/Libertarian/Whatever....Law Professor?
I am surprised.
I wanna know what he said. I can take it. Smelling salts in hand. Drumroll.....
Tell us...
Peace, Maxine
Think about the context, Maxine. But if you really want to know, email me.
