    “I heard he participated in the simulation games one year, and it was a disaster.  He had made friends with someone else on the team, and I guess the friend was searching for something while being backed up by someone else on their team.  Lenny thought the backup was someone sneaking up on his friend, and jumped him.  The rest of the team converged on him to get him off, and he ended up fighting with the lot of them.  Needl ess to say they lost the game.”
    “What happene d to the friend?”  Donny asked.
    “The friend?   I don’t know, I guess they stopped being friends after that.  Anyways, supposedly whenever Lenny hears about the simulation games now he gets angry.  I’d suggest you refrain fro m bringing that topic back up.”
    Donny was a little annoyed that he had not heard all of this before he made a fool of himself.  Still, it was good to know this now.  “Does anyone know when he typically gets breakfast?  I’d like to apologize to him.”
     
     
     
     
    DONNY GOT TO the cafeteria a little before Lenny was due to arrive, and waited for him to get there.  Right on schedule, Lenny walked into the cafeteria, grabbed some food, and sat down at the same table he had sat at the evening before.  As Donny approached, he could not help but notice that Lenny had taken almost the same food for breakfast as he had taken for dinner the night before; steak, two peanut butter sandwiches, a glass of water, and a brownie.  The only difference was that Donny had not noticed the brownie the night before, but sure enough Lenny had already eaten the brownie befo re Donny even got to the table.
    It was immediately clear that Lenny remembered Donny, for as Donny sat down, Lenny looked up and frowned, then went right back to eating.  Donny began right away, as apologetically as he could.  “Hey, Lenny.   I just wanted to apologize for last night, I didn’t mean to make you upset.  I was just going to ask for your help with something, but I understand that you prefer to keep to yourself, so I will not bother you anymore if you would prefer I l eft.  Would you prefer I left?”
    Lenny continued eating, and made no motion as if to respond in any way.  It suddenly occurred to Donny that Lenny might not understand what he was saying either.  Donny decided Lenny was clearly ignoring him, and this was a good enough sign for Donny to leave him be.  Donny moved to another table to finish his breakfast. 
     
     
     
     
    WITH LENNY IN the back of his mind, Donny focused as well as he could through his classes.  Simulation games try-outs were the upcoming weekend, and in preparation for it Advanced Strategic Leadership was focusing on strategies for team selection.  The most interesting part of this topic for Donny was that he was beginning to disagree with it.  They were being taught to plan out their strategies before choosing their team, so they could pick players that could be used to fit their strategies.  That was what Donny had originally planned, but after the past few weeks working with Jay, Michael, and Zahrah , he was beginning to realize that he preferred their new method of looking at the team members and finding strategies based on their strengths.  Besides, he was one person, and soon he would have a whole team to come up with good strategic options.  He listened for the sake of the weekly quiz, but he decided he wou ld choose the team his own way.
    After classes were over Donny went back to the cafeteria for lunch.  After gathering his food, he went and sat down at a small table.  He did not want to make a habit out of eating alone, but with so much to prepare, he decided it would be better to work through a few meals without distractions.  While thinking through his Advanced Mind Distortion material, a distraction came nevertheless.  He looked up, as he often did when he was trying to make sure he understood the material, and he noticed Lenny, standing off to the side of
