Q: Quaker

When I Googled "words that start with q" (not an uncommon approach here at Slapdash), I found the word Quaker and was reminded of the year in college when I worked childcare for the weekly Quaker meetings. I liked their pacifist philosophy and thought I should become a Quaker. I never did that though. And now I am reminded of a boy named Luke who spent those Quaker mornings with me. His dad and two brothers would pick me up each Sunday and drive me over to the Quaker meetings. They were all quality people, but I enjoyed Luke most of all. He was four then and insisted on wearing a bow tie to the meetings. Also, Luke once saw a dog outside the car window and yelled, "Run, Lassie, run!" Yes, that boy was funny. He's twenty now. And this is my post for Q.
