Philanthropic soul: subscribed to everything, joined everything, and gave to everything. Tells mariposa about the whirlwind campaign that he"s witnessed: campaign did not work, tells the sad news to dean drone, who knew nothing about the campaign. Headline: a quarter of a million drone wouldn"t read further as it would"ve spoilt the surprise. High school teacher, never got a raise. Get to know people really well while they are alive, be friends with them, close friends, and then when they die you don"t need to worry.
