High School English Comments

An interesting educational work. Thanks

I loved the book Lord of the Flies by William Golding. (And hated parts of it at the same time!) Never got to read it in school, though. Had to read it on my own later. I can remember that we had to read Macbeth in Senior English, and memorize 100 lines of it to get an 'A', but I can't remember what we had to read during any of my other school years!

Reminds me of my English literature teacher who I despised. I took a charged capacitor to school in my pocket. I took it carefully out by the pigtail lead and put it on my desk. Then I picked it up by the can, being careful not to touch the lead. I spun it back and forth so the lead twirled in the air. Mr. Hunsaker was tempted beyond his power to resist. He came up and grabbed it. It shocked us both, but it was worth it. Surprisingly, he gave it back to me.
