The bookcase fell over and I had to wait for the books to stop falling, then I ducked under it and went out onto the porch. I remember doing homework a few days later by candle light and I had just heard Bill Withers' "Aint no sunshine" for the first time. My mom was trying to explain the math problem to me so i cleverly said "I know, I know I know..." and she got all mad. yeah my story is basically the same because I lived in the same house as Denney, but with different details:
