My little brother is really unusual. He basically has no filter. Everything he says is original and unedited. His teachers are always disturbed by his comments and unpredictable antics. Those teachers are saints, every last one of them. He attracts a following at school--every classmate is intrigued by this boy and his really really weird sense of humor. I'm not sure if they think he's crazy, or if they're just jealous that they don't have the guts to be as crazy as him. Either way, I think he's a pretty special kid.
I love the conversations we have. They're often interrupted by movie quotes that have absolutely no relation to the discussed topic. But when I'm having a terrible day, and he shares an obscure movie reference with me, I know, right then, that I'd rather have this crazy kid as my brother, than any other run-of-the-mill kid on the block. I love you, Jake!
