Dear Papa Jon…

Q:

I hear there is a landslide warning out for all of western Washington, since our school is at the top of a hill, should I be worried?
Concerned,
Dancing in the rain

A:

Hello my concerned friend,
Well considering that the Alaskan Viaduct has stayed up this long, I think we can take our chances.
We are all going to be swimming with fish soon,
Papa

Q:

Two of my friends partied too hard this weekend. I feel like they should have grown out of this by now. How should I approach this and what should I tell them?
Sincerely,
A concerned friend

A:

Hello there,
This sounds weirdly familiar… I think you should approach them with two large glasses of water and incriminating pictures from the night in question. Tell them that they are not Freshmen and that they need to act their age.
Is this sub-tweeting?
Papa Jon

Q:

I am really nervous about participating in Dance Marathon over the weekend. I don’t know if I can last all 16 hours, what do I do?

A:

Hello fellow dancer,
Don’t be scared, it is an amazing time. I have done Dance Marathon for the past two years and have been able to get through the full 16 hours. Yes, it’s going to be hard, but you have to convince yourself that you can do it! Also, if you feel like you cannot dance for that long, feel free to take a break in the wellness room!
You are STRONG!
Papa Jon
