About this ebook
Many would say Allison is a crazy for getting caught up in the drama surrounding young Brigitte. The situation is similar to the teenage Greta Thunberg showing up at your door and accusing you of being a dirty son-of-a-bitch for destroying her childhood, for destroying her world with your greed, with your insatiable desire for luxury and comforts derived from those malevolent fossil fuels.
Some girl shows up at your door saying you're an evil bastard if you don't do as she tells you to do. What are you going to do?
This girl shows up in your living room and she wants you to panic so that you will take action to save the world from "climate change." Yes, yes, but if the actions she wants you to take are unnecessary, and, furthermore, if those unnecessary actions will actually destroy the world...well then I say that impetuous missy needs to re-think a few things.
This little novel gives one a diversion from various worries you might have, like, you might be worried that the world is burning up, or you might be worried you're going crazy because you fear your house is on fire and you are powerless to do anything about it. Or perhaps you feel you're going crazy because some Swedish child is yanking your chain but you are too lost and deluded to understand that Climate Change is just a big scam, just an easy way for con artists to separate fools from their money.
If you want my opinion then I say it's important to not make a botch of things during an Existential Global Crisis! The Bible tells us the Antichrist and the False Prophet will show up, and Revelation 14. 6-11 says 3 angels from Heaven will show up. Don't get angels from Hell mixed up with angels from Heaven. Revelation 9 says those who are not sealed with the seal of God will be tortured by monsters from Hell for 5 months. So it is important to not panic, yet, at the same time, it is vital to find the True Church with all deliberate speed.

Bill EE-tem. Born in Minneapolis, 1.2.60. Now living in St. Paul. Had lots of jobs: High School math teacher, football coach, track coach, legal coding / data entry, production, bar bouncer etc., etc. Bounced around some myself. Lived in Mexico for 20 months, in Oaxaca. Lived in Los Angeles for a few years. Traveled for 4 months round Europe after graduating from the University of Minnesota in 1983, B.A. in Mathematics. My religious books are all about searching for the True Church. The descriptions and contents of my 10 You Tube playlists also deal with that theme. If a Church leads people to Heaven then that Church is the Bride of Christ, the True Church, the Church Christ founded on a rock, Matthew 16. 13-19. If a church is lost in heresy and drags people down to eternal perdition then that church is a false church. The Christian scriptures are clear there is only one True Church, only one Bride of Christ. And yet there are thousands of separate churches / thousands of unique denominations in the world. This a big glaring problem. John 6. 53-55 tells us one must celebrate Holy Communion to attain Heaven and escape perdition. 1 Corinthians 11. 27-29 says you drink damnation into your soul if you celebrate Holy Communion in an unworthy manner. I've spent roughly 7 thousand hours working on my You Tube playlists, so be sure to scrutinize those when you get a chance. These You Tube videos explain how we got no end of Christians who violate 1 Corinthians 11. 27-29. They drink damnation into their souls by sharing the bread and the wine with people who push evil, Anti-Christian things. https://youtube.com/@billetem5868 www.billetem297@gmail.com

Allison’s Escape
Chapter 1. Every Day is a Winding Road
Allison Manischewitz, an inexperienced, not to say a cheap or a cut-rate paraprofessional, was at her usual breakfast hangout having some Freedom Toast with fresh blueberries and maple syrup, along with 4 slices of buttered and toasted Texas toast, and 3 scrambled eggs, plus a bowl of grits and 4 slices of crisp bacon. She had finished off a flank steak along with a tall stack of pancakes earlier at her place, but Allison soon discovered she was still hungry. She had time to get herself a decent breakfast before work. You can’t work on a growling stomach!
The Freedom toast was really just French toast but the owner of the breakfast joint was a Gulf War vet who got shot all to hell in Iraq back in 2004 and so he still bore a grudge against the French for not supporting the USA. The busted up vet – he walked with a limp and a list to his starboard side - clung tenaciously to the terms Freedom Fries and Freedom Toast.
Allison thought the owner of the joint an eccentric fellow but she was quite well-satisfied with the hearty breakfast. The maple syrup on the Freedom toast was sweet. The bacon, savory and aromatic. The Texas toast was warm, buttery, fresh and delightful. The grits were not too liquid and yet not too firm, but were of a fine and delicious consistency. The scrambled eggs were simple and honest without a hint of spice save for parsley, lemon, sea salt and black and jalapeno and habanero peppers. Allison finished up her meal, then drank a second cup of coffee, her third of the morning, before paying her bill and shoving off. She found her car right where she parked it, on a nearby street, a quiet tree-line boulevard. And then, well-fueled for a few hours at least, it was off to work, off to the salt mines.
Soon she was attending to her duties at Rudy G. Perpich Elementary School in Duluth Minnesota. She was helping Ms. Weatherburn in the latter's mathematics class, on this beautiful Spring day in June. The pine trees on London Road were keeping the air perfumed with their balsam fragrance. And your hay fever might be kicked into overdrive from all the flowers blooming throughout the twin ports metro area of Duluth Minnesota and Superior Wisconsin. The lilac blossoms were especially divine after the recent rain.
It was the 19-year-old Allison's job to usher the kindergarten kids to and from the playground, at recess, and to watch over them, like a guardian angel watching over little cherubs, to keep an eye on them and make sure they didn't get into any trouble during recess. Soon enough she would usher the kids back to Ms. Weatherburn's classroom after recess, drive them all inside in an orderly paraprofessional manner.
There was a good deal of regimentation at this kindergarten. There was lots of shouting and intimidation from the paraprofessionals directed at the little kids to keep them from getting into trouble, to prevent them from resisting the various revolutionary techniques and educational processes used at the school. Lots of kids got out of line, and quite often. Why did they resist the established order? Well, not every kid was a fan of
