Update the river to the Charles and test whether sports fans can pronounce the word “destroyer” to rhyme with Red Sox second baseman Dustin Pedroia, and we can brace ourselves for another regional clash of Biblical proportions—if we forget our heads and mistake sport for anything more than amusement. Bostonians and Harvard peers often forget civility and manners in their fanatical support for their own team...
...small, fifth-floor walk-up on the Lower East Side of New York City, we, along with singer Mary Travers, explored the musical boundaries of a nursery rhyme, "Mary Had a Little Lamb," in search of a vocal blend. What we--the members of the folk trio Peter, Paul and Mary--found instead was rapport, affection and a calling that lasted nearly 50 years...
...push me away, but I cannot let you go / try as you may, no, I cannot let you go,” sings Lerche.

Applying that template...
...cowards, and when we're mad, we're red. It's really about us all having these colors, and it's O.K. to have them, but it's learning how to deal with them and what to do with them. It's a sweet little book done in rhyme. I hope to write lots and lots of children's books through the years...
