March 2001 -

Yo Mr. Simmons,
Why do you always say everyone is unique in their own special ways? Second, why did you give Arnold a detention once when he threw paint at Helga? She started it.
- Just Wondering

Dear Wondering,
Why, hello there! Thank you very much for your special questions. To answer your first one, I truly believe that all people have their own unique talents and interests, and, as a teacher, it is important for me to stress this for my students. I don't want them to feel that they have to conform to any standard, and would rather see them develop the qualities that make them stand out. As for your second question, from what I saw of the fight, it looked like Arnold had been the one to start things, so I gave him detention. Stay special!
- Mr. Simmons

Arnold,
I have a question: how would you react if you found out that Helga had a crush on you? What would you say to her?
- Suzy

Suzy,
I don't know; I suppose I would react the same way I would if any girl said she liked me. I would be very flattered, but I think I would ask her to give me some time to think about it. Why are you asking about Helga in particular? I can understand Lila, or even Rhonda, Nadine, or Sheena, but Helga? She seems like the last girl who would have a crush on me, unless you think that picking on someone and calling them names is romantic.
- Arnold

Wolfgang,
Why do you always have to pick on Arnold and his friends all the time? Why do you have to be such a bully?
- Wants to Find Out

Dear Wants a Black Eye,
Dude... do you want to be seriously pounded? If you don't, back off, okay? Those dorks are always getting in my way, and they need to learn to obey the older kids, especially that weird-headed one. If they didn't step out of line, maybe they wouldn't get picked on as much.
- Wolfgang

Mr. Smith,
Why did you move out of the boarding house? Also, why are you so private and shy? Please, let me know!
- Scott

Scott,
We regret to inform you that Mr. Smith cannot be reached at this time. Please do not send any further letters.
- Lt. Seymour Kirshbaum

Arnold,
I was just wondering... what are your grades in school? And also, why do you have "Never-Ending Good Advice"? Your friends get sick of it.
- Bored

Dear Bored,
Well, my grades are pretty good, but they're not as impressive as Phoebe's. Regarding your second question, I give advice to my friends because I want to help them do the right thing, even if they don't always listen to what I have to say.
- Arnold

Iggy,
Do you still wear your bunny pajamas? Do you still have a reputation as being cool? Don't be ashamed, I wear them too!
- Inquiring Mind

Inquiring,
Of course I'm still cool, was there any doubt in your mind? And I don't know what you're talking about with the bunny pajamas.
- Iggy

Helga,
If you had a crush on a guy (say, Arnold), would you tell him? Why or why not?
- Inquisitive

Inquisitive,
What is it with you people? Do you have some sort of obsession with me and crushes? Do you think that I, Helga G. Pataki, could actually develop a crush on a footballhead like Arnold? That I could spend my every waking hour thinking of him and trying desperately to worm my way into his heart? Is that what you're trying to say? Um... this letter was never written. Got that?
- Helga

Phoebe,
...I was wondering, there's a guy I like at my school, and I wanted to know... are cooties real? Does Gerald get cooties from constantly holding hands with you?
- Curious

Curious,
Despite the credence that cooties are given on many playgrounds, scientifically speaking, they do not actually exist. Therefore, nobody could get cooties from holding hands. I'm not quite certain what you mean by Gerald 'constantly' holding hands with me, though; though Gerald is a wonderful person, I haven't gotten the chance to hold hands with him that much.
- Phoebe

Dear Arnold,
Hi! How are you doing? I'm a little under the weather, thanks for asking! I watch your show as often as possible, and it's a great show; I love it! I just have one question: Do you like comic books, and, if yes, what kind of comic books? Thanks for your time! I'll talk to you later! Keep up the good work!
- ComicMan16

Hi ComicMan,
I'm doing alright; I'm sorry to hear that you're not feeling that well, though. I'm not quite sure what you mean by 'my show', but I'm glad that you like it. I like reading comic books; when we have the chance, Gerald and I read some of our favorite comics. We like a lot of different comics, especially those with superheroes and detectives. We even have a bunch of old comics that my grandpa and his dad gave to us, and it's fun to take a look at them.
- Arnold
