What are you doing this weekend?

I’ve decided that from now on I’m gonna answer every question like a presidential candidate. It’s kinda fun…

“Teacher, what are you doing this weekend?”

“That’s a great question — and an important one. And I WILL do something this weekend. But let me take a step back, and answer a broader question. What are we ALL doing this weekend? As a nation? As a world? This weekend, I will do something comprehensive and robust, yet fun. We all should.”

“But what are you doing?”

“What I’m gonna do involves three things. First, it’s gonna be relaxing; second, it’s gonna be enjoyable; lastly, I’m gonna make sure that it’s cost-effective and I don’t get into a deficit. Four weeks ago, I said I’d do something — and I did. This weekend will be no different.”
