Friday Five

From Smattering.

1. What was your favorite subject in school? Why? Math, because it made sense.
2. Who was your favorite teacher? Why? Mr. H, whose full name escapes me. He gave me a box of electronics and said, "See what you can make of this" in 7th grade.
3. What is your favorite memory of school? In 7th grade, winning a blue ribbon in science fair (for that box of electronics that became a Jacob's Ladder and Tesla Coil) and a blue ribbon in an art competition (for a sketch of an elephant).
4. What was your favorite recess game? Can't think of any besides four-square.
5. What did you hate most about school? Being invisible to the "cool kids."

Mr H? Hersek? Holcomb? Those are the only two names I can recall from school that started with H.

Invisible? Hah! You crept in dark shadows where you published Underground Newspapers that poked fun at the pregnant girls!

Seventh grade - I was living in Minnesota still. I'm reasonably sure "Mr. H" had a longish German name.

Underground newspapers...hmmm, doesn't ring any bells. heh
