My one and only attempt many years ago to fly a kite with my then 5 year old son was very Linus-like. I ran up and down on NYC Riverside Park's promenade like a 100 meter sprinter and never did get it to rise more than a few feet off the ground. There-in lies the secret to being rescued. Any time that I have ever been madly dashing about looking like a totally incompetent boob, there has been someone there to witness it. Voila, no longer alone: rescued.
