Lesson #18: If It Moves, Chase It

Ah, springtime.

The days grow longer, the birds are singing, the grass is growing, and the bugs are buzzing. The last of which provides Professor McLovin with yet another opportunity to expound on his latest rule.

Bicycles, balls, rodents, joggers, falling leaves, dogs, waves: the world is filled with so many things that move. It doesn't matter if you can't catch whatever you're chasing because it's the pursuit itself that is most satisfying. So if you see something move out of the corner of your eye consider it your duty to get over there as fast as you can and start tearing around after it until it's gone or has become stationary. Only then can you give up the chase.
