Tuesday, May 24, 2005My Day with the Kids
Today I was very honored to spend the day at West View Elementary School, where I was the invited guest for their Author Day program. I'm somewhat used to being marginally well-known, especially in the mystery community -- that usualy translates into someone introducing me to someone else with a, "do you know Jim Pascoe?" and them responding, "oh yeah." But I wasn't in any way prepared for going to a school full of Kim Possible fans.
The craziest thing was how the whole school was decked out with Jim Pascoe-themed decorations. I kid you not. Banners with my name on them. Pictures of me that had hundreds of welcoming signatures. Planets and stars hung from the ceiling in honor of the Star Wars comics I've done. And the total head trip of it all: an auditorium filled with cheerleader posters saying "Gimme a J-I-M P-A-S-C-O-E!" in which each kid wrote a different word for each letter of my name. So one poster had "P is for Playing, A is for Art, S is for Star Wars, etc." Totally humbling and surreal. I was so overwhelmed I couldn't even write them all down, although I wanted to. I did pay special attention to the Os in Pascoe, for some reason. I noticed one "O is for On-time homework" (someone who doesn't know me very well), one "O is for Obtuse Triangle" (someone who does know me very well) ... and a big three instances of "O is for Oral." Education is awesome! // posted at

that's so awesome
Obviously they're anticipating your upcoming (heh) Kim Possible sex-ed manual, "Kim Possible: The Lava Lap".
I'll have to have you come to my school next year during author week in Simi Valley.
