Brad's 20th Anniversary Party

On June 3rd, family & friends, old and new came to celebrate Brad's 20th year at Randolph School. There was a roasting of Brad, where he was read his own list made up by the students. He was serenaded by Creek's original King of Upstairs , and given a fabulous gift from the parents, a trip to Alaska. At the reception there was a rocket piñata, a rocket cake and the coolest light bulb ever. It was a wonderful time for all who attended.

King of Upstairs (to the tune of “King of the Road”)

Shoots water, but never gets wet Drips… a-runnin’ off him are sweat Full closet, but what’s inside? Don’t go diggin’ in there if you value your hide! Eats salad with ev’ry dish Tofu, stir-frys, and yes- he eats fish Well he’s:  Brad, math’matic’ly radical, King of Upstairs! He knows every math game that’s ever been played Every rocket that’s ever been made Every star that the Star Lab’s displayed, he’s the King of Upstairs! Bear hugs, and tickles too Bad? The turtle tank for you! Pirate stories in the mornin’ at two And if your still awake another chapter or two, he’s a Better window than a door Japan, Alaska, travels galore, yes he’s Brad, math’matic’ly radical, King of Upstairs Built a tide tank where the ebb was displayed A machine for balls to be trebucheted Knows every Dead song that’s ever been played, he’s the King of Upstairs If you need, he’ll loan his van IF he’s not on Fire Island Where he takes his offbeat friends And if you’re one he’ll share his shack, sun, stars, and sand… Dad to Marcus, and Sean his step-son Bikes and gives blood for everyone, he’s Brad, mathematically radical, King of Upstairs King of the Upstairs (pdf)
