Back OT, anyone remember getting paddled? And the shop teachers having paddles that looked like a thick butcher block with holes drilled in it? The PE coach using his whistle leash? I guess that may be just me.

I remember the boards with holes.  Our principal in grade school had one with Board of Education on it!

Ohhhhh yeah.... 
 
Had one teacher in elementary school (6th grade) that had a long thin piece of wood.  He wasn't my normal teacher, but we had him one day when ours was out and he slammed that thing on my desk right on my knuckles because I was daydreaming.  My first reaction was to break the damn thing.  Hellllooo Mr. Principal, yeah, it's me again!

I I would have told them (and DID once! At UCSB, too!)) .... that teachers like them would never know or see a future where things were different! And they were not helping prepare us for it!

I refused to use a calculator in math So one of my teacher used to say Marcus! use a calculator!  Haha

Calculators tend to ruin some good, immature jokes though...
 
What's the square root of 69?  8 something.
