Bob C., that was a great response. I sure do remember being called "lardaas" by "Andy" or "Coach" but the word that comes to mind when I think of him is "pizzeria" which he altered by softening the zzs to sses when referring to the men's room, which he seemed to do at least once a class for reasons I can no longer remember; probably had to do with kids ducking out. I remember the games of warball in the gym where these big seniors whipped these old half deflated and torn up basketballs at us smaller opposing teams up against the wall; it seemed worth your life until you got larger yourself and returned the favor to the next smaller class. The way of the world, it seems.
