He was a short, pudgy man, always over-dressed. In fact, he didn't just wear his clothes--he hid inside them. His uniform consisted of a neatly pressed pin-striped suit, a thin black tie over a starched white shirt, and a pair of brightly polished brown Oxfords. His receding gray hair was always neatly trimmed, and his fat, wrinkled head always darted about like a radar blip on his neck. He paced the school hallways in a perpetual motion of twitching, fidgeting, and twiddlingLOLWTHROFLMotif: a reoccurring element or pattern
