Random Memories #4

In high school, my Economics teacher talked like Yogi Bear. No joke.

We had to divide up into groups to form companies and give our group a name. The name my girlfriend and I chose for our group- "Hey, Boo Boo!"

Each week, when progress reports were printed and handed out, the teacher would announce, "Hey, Boo Boo!" in his best Yogi inflection.

Someone in the class also had a list that he named after this teacher which included all of the words he was incapable of pronouncing. My favorite was "rooooned". This was how he pronounced "ruined."

Perhaps I'd be a more wary and educated consumer had I not wasted all that time making fun of the teacher. :o)
