Entering the 2000 Football Season, Penn State football coach Joe Paterno was poised to pass Paul Bear Bryant as major college football's all-time winningest coach. With his 317 career victories, Paterno was six shy of tying Bryant's record of 323. But as successful as his Nittany Lions teams have been on the field, winning two national titles and posting seven undefeated regular seasons, Paterno has been most influential off the field as a mover, shaker, and outspoken advocate for what is right and ethical about collegiate sports.
Joe spent most of his time at the bar, where they knew him as "Gemini Joe," a charismatic, funny man who was the life of any party, but his family didn't see this side of him at home. A bottle of scotch on the table was all it took to set him off, causing his children to hide at the top of the stairs, listening and waiting for the fighting to stop. At times, his creative side came out in the form of poetry, drawings, and inventions, including the first design for a toothpaste cap that stayed on the tube. Tragically, he was never to achieve success. The struggle with alcohol caused Joe to walk away from his wife and children. Estranged from his oldest daughter, years passed until he wrote her a letter. It included a poem that he had written which triggered her curiosity. She didn't know much about his childhood and asked him to tell her his story.My earliest memory of my father was at a family wedding when I was four years old. I could still see my mother smiling and dancing, happy to be with her family. My father sat at a table, glaring as she glided across the dance floor. He drank one scotch on the rocks after another until jealousy took hold of him, and his rage cut the evening short. I wanted to love him but found it difficult to please him. I wanted to please him but knew it was impossible. When he divorced my mother, I felt obligated to cut him out of my life out of loyalty to her. Until one day, I received a letter along with a poem. I didn't know this side of my father. Impressed by his words, I asked him to tell me about his childhood. As I collected the missing pieces of his life, I had an opportunity to understand the true nature of the man buried deep beneath the alcoholic.

Just A Girl. Just A Guy. Just a Bench... A bench on a street, but this isn't the story of a bench. It's the story of a Girl. A Girl who didn't know how to girl. Endearingly nerdy, sharp, funny, and a bit of a tomboy badass, Girl is not a prude. Not shy or timid. She loves horror movies and literature and dirty jokes. She looks good in flannel, she's 26, and she's into crushes. Romantic crushes where she can dream about holding hands or talking for hours on a hill, in the quiet and stillness of the starlight. Anything more than hand-holding seems weird to her. Other kids in College made her feel like a freak, and she began to worry that there was something wrong with her. In a society of pouty lips, big breasts, and stiletto heels, she was becoming invisible, until her best friend started dating Mathilda. This is a story about a Girl, about a Guy she knows, and a bench upon which they were sat. Our Girl has never been good at radical thoughts, and she usually gets what she deserves when she has them. This is the story about those thoughts. Thoughts on how to NOT have sex, Not eat noodles, and other life, love, and dating nonsense from a Girl who was brave enough to challenge what it means to be a girl. Attraction is more fluid than it seems. It's a new kind of sexual revolution, and through fits and fumbles, our Girl finally discovers that love is what you make of it.
