JUG is from "MY LIFE AS IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN — a memoir for readers who find memoirs disagreeable and reality tedious". I've surged into the tenth grade, and I have the dubious privilege of being educated daily by Jebbies (Jesuits for those unskilled in such ecclesiastical terms) in a powerhouse high school in Detroit. But my most memorable teacher that year did not wear a black dress to work. He was a retired four-star admiral fresh from the Korean War who taught us American History, but with a twist. I learned the difference between military men and politicians by simply pouring coffee.
