One by one, names were called and people disappeared through the sunlit hallway into a pitch black gymnasium where they’d ascend the stage and fidget nervously in a spotlight as woots, hollers and cameras clicked away. My nerves glitched up as each name was called. This is totally bad news. Next thing I knew, my name was...
