    Wow!! Mr. Mead. Most definitely my favorite teacher at Kakiat(1983,84&85) along with DAN the security guard. My name is Thomas Mitchell my sister Donna and Jerry also attended. My sister sent me your link and I enjoyed everything you mentioned along with the great memories you shared. Can’t wait to buy a copy of your books. Thanks!

  2. I need to read the book. As a student At kakiat in the mid 70s I Assume the teacher you describe with big breasts who caught the looks was mrs agresta. She was a hottie

    1. Hi Brian, Yes Nina was a hottie, but the woman in the novel is Renee’ Torbin, Physical. Education teacher who was well endowed and had a romance with Job Hughes the Social Studies teacher. They lasted only a year until the Principal forced them to resign. Dr. Mead
