By the time Jack was done talking, my cheeks hurt from laughing. But there was plenty of good meaty food for thought too. Especially the truth that books help us answer that life-long question, "Who am I?" Thanks for a great night, Jack Gantos.Posted : May 02, 2015 07:35

While delivering the Zena Sutherland lecture this week I think the HB Comment Policy will be very useful--more for the audience, I think, than for me. 1. Since I'm the only commentator, and since the speech is titled A PAIR OF JACKS TO OPEN, then I think being smarmy with myself is okay, if not expected. 2. I won't use obscene language but I figure everyone there will be sharp enough to read-between-the-lines. 3. I suppose if I want to delete myself from the podium all I have to do is drift off 'point.' Which means, this is going to be a very short speech followed by a very long chat in the bar, because my best material is on-topic-challenged. See you there, Jack Comment Policy: Be respectful, and do not attack the author or other commenters. Take on the idea, not the messenger. Don't use obscene, profane, or vulgar language. Stay on point. Comments that stray from the topic at hand may be deleted.Posted : Apr 27, 2015 04:31
