They've taken over the student loan, they've taken over the education system, and everybody in it is miserable and unhappy.

She was my teacher for a full seven years.

• I think we sent Tony Fucile pictures of ourselves, photos from like when we were seven years old. That's what he worked from. He captured exactly what we looked like.

I'm hoping at BEA, or ALA, I'll get to meet Tony and shake his hand and thank him.
