- On our campus, there is a preacher who is commonly called Mad Max. From
- periodic observations I have noticed that his main goal in life is to say
- something similar to the above. (At least that is what he does
- during the warm days of the year, but I hear that when it gets colder he
- continuous his purposefulness somewhere in Florida.)
-
- My favorite scene envolving Mad Max, I observed while rushing through our
- Quad one day. There was a small crowd of two guys with mohawks (one with red
- mohawk and one with blue) listening (patiently) to the preachings of Mad Max.
- When I walked by, I just heard him saying,"What would happen if your mother
- had an abortion?"
-
- What I liked about it was that that little scene could be interpreted anyone
- way one wanted. Personally, I imagined what would happen if Max's mother...
