My math teacher, an eccentric genius, who, out of all the schools in houston, taught in one of the most ghetto schools.  He's now a teacher in japan, and I think he's staying there for good.  He tells me how his students wait for him to sit down before they do.  And they do not get up to leave until he does.  And they bring him donuts and coffee.

He deserves it!
