Dude, with every snippet I get more and more interested-- your evil plans for world domination are clearly taking effect.<br /><br />The other thing people don't realize about teachers and their 2 and 1/2 month holiday: you don't get paid for it. They just spread the checks out.

He was primarily the gym teacher, but english was his "other subject" as is usually the case with gym teachers. Perhaps you could work out a work-share program with the gym teacher.Alan W.
