Finding Miracles
“JAKE & SHAKE. Walking into Ralston High, I felt like I was in a bad rap video. Jake’s posters were everywhere!One poster showed a picture of Jake looking off into the Green Mountains: JAKE FOR THE EARTH’S SAKE. (This to win the “green” granola vote.)Pablo made one showing Jake wearing a sombrero with a bandanna tied around his neck: JAKE: UN HOMBRE SIN-CERO. (Everyone kept asking him what it meant, so Pablo wrote the translation in tiny print below the caption: Jake: an honest man.)Em and I did... one together. We took a photo of Jake surrounded by some posters and bumper stickers of his favorite causes: SAVE THE WHALES. DON’T LAUGH AT FARMERS WITH YOUR MOUTH FULL. PEACE IS NOT SOMETHING TO DIE FOR. LOVE MAKES A FAMILY. TAKE VERMONT FORWARD. Our caption read: VOTE FOR JAKE, A LOT’S AT STAKE.Every time I glanced at one of Jake’s posters, then looked over at Taylor’s—Taylor in his nifty Abercrombie & Fitch T-shirt with this attitude written all over his face, like Hey, dude, vote for me if you feel like it, no big deal—I thought, poor Jake, trying so hard.Actually, we were all trying too hard.MoreLess
