Re:teachers - 2009/03/30 17:51 This was so much fun to go back and read...Thought i'd send it in for another go around. Coach Chadwick was the best history teacher ever, I must agree.

Dick Byrd – fantastic teacher – one of the best. I’m sorry now for the time Terry Myles and I cheated on a test in his class (Hey wait, can they revoke my HS diploma for that?) Sorry Terry!

You got away with cheating in my Dad's class? You were damn lucky he did not catch you guy's. The rest of the year would have been HELL ON EARTH!!

Although he was very even-handed. You pay attention and make an effort, no problem. You screw around,BIG problem. I'm glad I did not have him as my teacher. He would have stayed on me like white on rice,at school and at home. I had enough trouble not having him as a teacher.

Re:teachers - 2009/04/01 23:07 I agree about Coach Chadwick. When other teachers would go off,, Chadwick would just quietly take ya out in the hall and down to Mr. Ouzts you would go.
I saw Mr Ouzts about 8 years ago and he knew who I wuz,, not a good thing.

Ms. Jolly was always kewl too.

I can't remember the art teachers name, but she was a little touched. She almost blew a blood vein when Richard O'Kelly drew a picture of her nude.

I hear that Coach Flanigan is up near Dahlonega and was still helping with wrestling.

What ever happened to all the other teachers,, anyone know?

I thought I saw Ms. Rippy once but it wasn't her.

And there was always the deaf math teacher that we were all so mean to.
WOW,, we had such a good school and didn't even know it. The only things in life that are free,,

Your memories and the air you breathe

Re:teachers - 2009/04/02 08:15 Sweet how we spoke of Coach Flannigan just yesterday after the "mystery lunch". You see at the Kudsu a gal in the store heard Laurie and I laughing and carrying on and she asked us why we were so joyfull. We told her about our luncheon and she told us she graduated from North Springs High. I asked her if she realized that Coach Flannigan came to her school from our school and she realized her fortune to know him. When the coach left our school for their school I remember it was really like "Elvis left the building" for the first time. He was an amazing teacher. He said that someday robots would take over and I believe he was right. He said a lot of things in my Socialization class that have proved to come true. Please say I'm not the only one who wasn't in his Detention after school. I swear someday Jack...I'm gonna put a picture of me here...

Re:teachers - 2009/04/02 10:53 I never took any Socialization classes at Shamrock. Is that what my problem is? And all this time I've been blaming it on New Jersey...

Re:teachers - 2009/04/02 17:46 Excuse me I shoulda said Social studies class taught by Coach Flanigan. He really had a lot of New Age Info for his times. And he was one of those guys from the Greatest Generation or at least riding on the coat-tails. He had some words of advice I never forget. I think he knew a little bit about what John Lennon was saying in "Imagine" about socialism and economics. And for real he said that robots would take over the world as we know it and he is so on target. He said your job can some day be takin' over by a robot. So I'm waitin' for a robot to push a Bedpan under yer Butt. I swear someday Jack...I'm gonna put a picture of me here...

Re:teachers - 2009/04/02 17:56 A bedpan? I hope she means that collectively, not specifically me!

I always tell the cashier as I check out that I chose her line just to keep her in a job. I think the self-checks are rude -- truly a corporate robotic dream. And I think WalMart was stupid to think folks wouldn't take advantage of them!

Think about all those automated teller machines...there used to be a lady who handed you the money...most of 'em even smiled.

I bet all our teachers were pretty smart -- most of 'em were sure smarter than us at the time...

Re:teachers - 2009/04/03 09:38 Do ya'll remember Ms. Pouseman? Biology? Tall, willowly blonde...really long hair! and wore these long tunics over her pants...because the teachers were not allowed to be seen in front of the class without their booties covered...

First time I "met" Greg Alford, at a pop-up party at Gail McLeod's, I was dressed like that (long vest -- hand-woven silk -- purple and pink -- bellbottoms) he asked me if I was a teacher. He said I looked like a teacher...

Anyway, Ms. Pouseman gets my vote for ENTHUSIASM. She really loved Biology, even if I didn't...(no frogs that year, just single celled amaeobas(?) and such)...

There's a lot to be said for a teacher with ENTHUSIASM -- even if it's just that it's entertaining...and we were sure all looking for entertainment, hmmm?

We took a field trip -- out into the field behind the school and into the woods in the back. Somebody kicked a log and found termites..."GETTUM! GETTUM!" she hollered, "GRAB 'EMMMM!" I think about that everytime the word "termite" comes up.

Those termites were really cool under a microscope -- they had things that lived inside their tummies that digested the wood they ate...I think that's called a "symbiotic relationship"?

So, despite my lack of interest in the general subject -- prefering just to get out into that field and off into the woods -- I managed to learn a little biology that year. THANKS TO ALL OF OUR ENTHUSIASTIC TEACHERS! Looking back, the good ones always were.

Re:teachers - 2009/04/03 22:04 I had Prescioustine Jackson for art my Junior year. She later went on to teach home ec. My senior year I had Miss Walters for art. Funny, I thought her name was Carole Walters too but her name is listed in 70
Emerald as Jane Catherine. (I looked it up). That was a fun class!
