| Hi Evel. I was rollerblading on campus at school and trying to impress some sorority girls that were nearby, and I tried to jump off this wall in front of one of the girls' dorms. I lost my balance and ended up sending my rollerblade-wearing feet through the glass front door of the dorm, shattering it. I got scared and made my escape, and now the campus police are offering a reward for the "vandals" who broke the door. I am worried that the girls I was skating in front of will tell on me. So should I turn myself in, or lay low and hope they will keep quiet? Or maybe there is some other solution? I am scared to death right now because I could be in a lot of trouble. What should I do? |
| Admit nothing. Deny everything. Deny, deny, deny. It's only going to cause you trouble. This was an accident, and if you come clean, it's only going to cause you a world of trouble. They'll fix the door. Look, in a hundred years, no one's going to remember or care who broke the door. It's not worth screwing up your life over an accident. Just let it blow over.

I recently lost my mother. I am a 15-year-old student living with my aunt. I'm sure you have lost loved ones in your life. Will the pain ever get easier? -Gabrielle |

Of course it will, Gabrielle. Have you ever heard of the expression "Time wounds all heels"? Well time heals all wounds. You'll realize sooner or later that dying is a part of living, but your mother's in a wonderful place with God, and you'll see her again. Your mother would want you to go on with the rest of your life being happy.

Please note: Tripod, like most citizens of the Spaceship Earth, is in awe of Evel Knievel, his life, and his hard-earned position in American culture. However, neither Tripod nor its parent company, Lycos, Inc., necessarily share, espouse, or agree with the viewpoints expressed by Mr. Knievel, or any other Tripod columnist. (While we're at it, and to be perfectly candid, we are also fairly certain we don't agree with most of the viewpoints expressed by our high school teachers, parents, parole officers, therapists, and career bureaucrats employed by the United Nations.)
