A-Z "Topic Of The Day"

oops... eager beaver

Was going to say St Joseph for J because... seriously in those days who takes the word of a preganant teenager that your engaged to and you know you've never slept with her that she's pregnant and still a virgin and its a miracle from god... either the biggest fool in history or the greatest, most loving caring man ever...like to think its the second which makes him a bit of a hero for sticking by her and being dad to a kid that wasn't him. Well done St Joey.

Yep... we had a great teacher in primary school (had a lot of great teachers in primary and some in secondary) who twice a term would make us draw a name from a hat of someone he thought we should know about and then we had to research it and do a presentation to the class... so effectively we learnt about all of the people. They were usually people who had fallen through the cracks of history into obscurity, deservedly famous in their day but forgotten by time... it was the best 2 years of schooling I had (grades 5 & 6) because he was such an inspirational teacher.
