The skinny boy cheers
I told Howard all about Koko from The Cat Who... series. He was somewhat interested, but not very.
I was taking some math and science classes at Collegiate because I was horribly unskilled. A lanky guy wearing a cheerleading outfit came to my house and performed a cheer for me. It was at once both flattering and pathetic. Matt seemed amused and I was embarrassed. At that moment I thought, "What the hell am I doing at Collegiate? I'm 23 years old; I don't want to take high school classes. I've got my master's, for god's sake."
