I had a math teacher in N'Awlins, Miss Lush, red faced, big, blustery
she was never quite put together right - her slip showing, the blouse untucked, run in her stocking, buttons undone, etc....
and she had the worst lisp I've ever heard
thircles, thircumferences, thymmetry, thequence, tholve and tholution, thquare root, thum and thubtract were only some of the terms that drove the class into hysterics
I've never met a person since more glaringly unsuited for their vocation
but oh, the joy she brought into math class, still makes me smile |
