I’m sure you probably saw some of the news reports about what happened in our city back in mid-March, right? I mean you would have to be a hermit living in a cave to miss all that media coverage.
March and parts of April around here were pretty wild and crazy, to say the least. Actually, to be honest about it, things haven’t completely settled down. Government types, scientists and reporters are still looking for answers they’ll never find.
Even if I told all those investigators exactly what went on, they would never believe me. Not that I intend to tell them, but I’ve been thinking about it—what would happen if I tried. Having firsthand knowledge about something so important and yet not being able to say anything is really hard.
So what do I do? Well, I look in the mirror and say, “Jeff Golden, you just keep your mouth shut about all that stuff. Go back to good old St. Augustine High, study hard like mom wanted you to and try to forget it ever happened.”

Easier said than done.
