A Perfectly Timed White Lie<br />
Larry was supposed to bake a cake for the <strong>Maugus</strong> <strong>Club</strong> Martial Arts fund raising bake sale but forgot to<br />
do it until the last minute. <strong>The</strong> cake was important to Larry because he wanted so badly to make a good<br />
impression with the Head Instructor. So, being as inventive off court as on, he looked around the house for<br />
a way to fashion a quick substitute.<br />
Larry found it in the bathroom—a roll of toilet paper. He plunked it into a dish and covered it with icing. He<br />
even placed a badminton bird on top, and a squash ball on top of that and iced them them in different colors,<br />
for a beautiful sphere-on-cone-on-cylinder effect, symbolizing the deep, intertwined symmetries inherent in<br />
Tai Chi movements.<br />
Before he left the house to drop the cake off at the <strong>Club</strong> and head for work, Larry woke his daughter, gave<br />
her some money, and instructed her to be at the bake sale the moment it opened to buy the cake and bring<br />
it home. But when Larry’s daughter arrived at the sale, she found the beautiful cake had already been sold.<br />
When Larry heard the news, he was horrified—everyone would know!<br />
