The Tragic Comedy of Jean Paul Zodeaux

reply to post by endisnighe


Thanks for sharing your story as well brother. It is heartening to read that upon your teacher hearing of this ruse he or she was able to laugh at the absurdity and hopefully learned something about the arbitrary nature of grading and that teaching should involve helping others to think for themselves.

Bump!


Now, here's an introduction for ya!

Enjoy.

Being intrigued by the avatar and the name by a few recent posts I enjoyed made me do a search on the name which took me to this introduction post. Its the only one I have ever read here on ATS and likely the only one I ever will. I loved it and am glad I followed my curiosity.

(Standing and clapping heartily) Braaaaavo! Zodeaux lives after all!
I love the ruse; the boldness and justification for it and whether it's true or not, it's a delicious read. There's an impish Irish quality in it, besides the obvious Zodeaux rhyming so easily with Godot.

Now I'm traipsing off with whetted appetite to peruse more one act stuff you may have written.

Dammit... JPZ is gone. There goes fine writing amongst ATS.

Can't discuss it. Can't even discuss the fact that he was. Oops I'm doing it now. I apologize Mods, please don't ban me.

Slow day on ATS, leads to the perusal of the archives.

Such treasures have been laid-down here, and, mostly, forgotten.

Loved reading this intro thread, and am wondering, with this bump, if any others will also appreciate ?

I don't comment much, but what fun! Also, what a sad state that so many people would jump to embracing the lie so as to not lose face -- shameless. Thanks for the brilliant intro.
