Ahhh, good. Because I like beer and gambling.

Wonderful teachers:

Sister N: elementary school principal. What a lady!
Mrs G: 5th grade
Mrs S: 8th grade literature
Mr G: high school math
Mr W: high school history and current events
Mr M: high school advanced english and french

And I don't want to forget the wonderful high school librarian. He got a lot of crap from people, he was not a great looking man, and he had a beautiful wife. Looking back, he was probably a hippie in his day. He would lead me towards books he thought I'd like.

Not good teachers:

Sister F in 3rd grade (after coming back to school after my kitty got hit on the road and I rode in the back of the station wagon with him and he was all smashed up, but I said it would be OK because he went to heaven and she starts yelling "ANIMALS DON'T HAVE SOULS..." Mom talked to her, this poor child cried for two days straight. Have you no empathy?

Mr G: freshman english. Meh
Mr P: high school world history. Meh
Mr G: high school political sciences: always challenging me to argue. Then would say "why don't you tell your mom and have her come in and yell at me?" to which I replied "my mom taught me to fight my own battles, thank you very much. Now, about how you're wrong." (WEll, except for the 3rd grade incident...mom fought for me then! I was just a little kid.)

To all the dedicated, good teachers out there...good on you. It can't be easy.
