Donald didn't have Miss Aissen, our hot teacher with the body and the long brown hair. When Miss Aissen corrected me on the ballfield, I knew I'd sooner die than let Miss Aissen down again.

It was a devastating blow when we returned to school in the fall and learned Miss Aissen had gotten married during summer vacation.

to Honolulu (dad was at Hickam AFB). Us young-uns had a activity deal every
day and the leader or teacher was a very attractive young woman. I had a big
10 year old crush on her. On the third or fourth night, I was walking the decks with my older brother. There, in one of the ship's nightclubs, was my love, a cocktail waitress in
a skimpy outfit with fishnet stockings. I was shook to the shoes. She gave me
a Lurline knife when we docked.

Since I was born, um, a few years after you, I went to high school at a time when half the teachers were women fresh out of college who wore miniskirts indistinguishable from the student body. So to speak. A trying time, indeed, but it had its compensations.

Flashman also allowed me to impress my friends when I knew the meaning of "delope" in a Says You bluffing round.

I'm charmed you remember our discussion.
