Something of a tutor

I have been an english "tutor" for the last 3 weeks to a kid named Quetin who lives in my apt building. I use the term tutor very loosely though. I basically just go down one day a week for an hour and talk about whateve. The first week we talked about music. We have pretty much the exact same taste in music. It was a grand time. I would talk about a band and he would play a song from them and i would try to guess it, very satisfying. We worked our way from Zep, to Floyd, to Sabbath , to even Metallica. He actually prefers the blues so we talked about Stevie Ray Vaughn and Muddy Waters and some others. He is unbelievable at guitar truly he should drop his studies and start a band as i always tell him.

Last week we discussed some philsophy, quantum physics as well as if there was a god. You know just the usual tuesday night discussions. Last night we about video games and low and behold we love the same games as well. We played some Gears of War for an hour or so.

Quentin is a great kid hope he goes far he is damn well smart enought to make it.
