Another goody from our Meredith's Jack.
After retiring from the Marine Corps, a former Drill Instructor Sergeant took a job as a high school teacher.
Just before the school year started, he injured his back. He was required to wear a light plaster cast around the upper part of his body. Fortunately, the cast fit snugly under his shirt and wasn't noticeable when he wore his suit jacket.
On the first day of class, he found himself assigned to the toughest students in the school. The smart-aleck punks, having already heard the new teacher was a former Marine, were leery of him and he knew they would be testing his discipline in the classroom.
Walking confidently into the rowdy classroom, the new teacher opened the window wide and sat down at his desk, he looked around the room and made eye contact with each and every student.
A strong breeze through the window made his tie flap. He picked up a stapler and stapled the tie to his chest.
Dead Silence.
The rest of the school year went very smooth…
Welcome to my little corner of the world where you never know what you will find! It could be anything from a joke to a funny picture to a personal rant to a favorite recipe to an awesome quote to any random "bright idea" that pops into my mind.

As you would say, Cat, "Good gravy." I knew a substitute teacher who was retired military. I would always request him if I had to take off school for a day. The kids adored him and the work actually got done. He was such a great man.

Many of those military men just have a certain bearing don't they Ella. ;)
