"As a child, he
{Andre the Giant} displayed symptoms of his gigantism very early, reaching a
height of 6'3" (190.5 cm) and weight of 240 pounds (110 kg) by age 12.
Unable to fit on the school bus, he was driven to school by a neighbor, Nobel
prize winning playwright and author Samuel Beckett."
This fired my imagination. If it fires yours perhaps you’d like to spend a minute and contribute a few words to this Extra Criticum … thing.
Teenage Andre waits curbside, dressed in a wrestling unitard and wrestling boots laced up to his knees.
Andre waits.
And waits.
While he waits, he eats several dozen chocolate bars. Sometime during his 25th chocolate bar, a school bus drives by. The PASSENGERS, point and laugh at Andre.
Andre waits.
A car pulls up and stops beside Andre. A Citroen, I think. In it is Samuel. His hair sticks up in different directions, resembling a Frank Gehry building, his facial features resemble those of an eagle.
The car door opens without Samuel moving. Andre enters.
Andre
Good morning, Sam.
Samuel
Andre.
Okay, it’s your turn. Write what happens next in the comment field.
