Hi Bill
LOL--those nuns could be wily couldn't they. But, in high school we had
some that were a little different in their own way. Of course, we were
somewhat cruel now that I think of it. We painted a chicken's toes with
nailpolish when the biology teacher passed a leg around so we could see how
the tendons, etc. worked. By the time she got it back, she was livid. We
locked her out of the classroom one day and then played dumb after she got
the janitor to open the door. When she lost her underwear at a convocation,
instead of being quiet we called attention to her. What terrible teens we
were.
There are so many stories that so many people have about the silly things we
did in school. It is too bad that for many there will not be those fun
memories. Wish there was more that we could do about that.
