Naming The Dead

For awhile The Electric Company magazine had a feature like this where every month they'd print the names of some random subscribers on a coloring page near the back of the issue. Every month I'd get my little hopes up that this would be the month when I'd find my name listed among the lucky, famous few and every month I'd get those little hopes dashed upon the rocks of continued anonymity. But I'd always fight through the pain and color the page anyway. What a trooper I was!
