Lesson 6 Harrison Bergeron
George and Hazel were watching television.
There were tears on Hazel’s cheeks, but she’d forgotten for the moment why she was crying.
Ballerinas danced across a television screen.
“BUZZ!” went the transmitter in George’s ear.
Gone were his thoughts.
“That was a real pretty dance they just did,” said Hazel.
“Huh?” said George.
“That dance—it was nice,” said Hazel.
“Yup,” said George.
He tried to think a little about the ballerinas.
They weren’t really very good.
Anybody could have done as good a job.
They had big weights holding them down, so they couldn’t jump high.
They had masks on their faces so that no one might see the beauty inside.
George was toying with the vague notion that maybe dancers shouldn’t be handicapped.
But he didn’t get very far before another noise scattered his thoughts.
“BUZZ! BUZZ!” went the transmitter in his ear.
Hazel heard the sound from across the room.
“I’d like to hear those noises,” she said, a little enviously because she had no radio in her ear.
“If I were Diana Moon Glampers, the Handicapper General, you know what I’d do?” she continued.
“I’d put beautiful chimes in people’s ears.
People would be happier that way.
I’d make a good HG, I think.”
“Well, as good as anybody else, I guess,” said George.
He began to think glimmeringly of his abnormal son Harrison, who was now in jail—maybe he’d make a good HG.
