W's Story

Bernard a broody bulldog. Jack the closeted groundskeeper, his dogs lady and butch.The second grade teacher was blond and HOT,and prim and proper. but the third grade teacher was a flusey fling for some of the 7th and 8th graders.It's funny most of the working families around my NYC neighborhood worried about the growing influence of drugs and crime and bad influences in the hood and wanted their kids out of that element , shipped us out and yet we all met at the school one fall day each knowing each others mothers and fathers within blocks of each other.Now here we were at the lilly white then blue collared suburban hood and it was ours for the taking when fundraising.

How about the house? Torn down.I loved going there on a sleep over with the underclassmen. They sold most of the rear property. Some left the order for their promiscuis ways. Some dissulusioned. It was the sixties ! and many truths were founded and lies unfounded but of one this is certain and it is That never was a place so vicious to its children while under the guise of religious instruction.
But hey, it was all in the name of love.
