I only flunk my brightest students

Originally planned as a complaint about a bad sixth-grade teacher, "I Only Flunk My Brightest Students : stories from school and real life" grew into a life story. Humorous memoir has received great praise from readers. Book is guaranteed to be at least 80% true, and dirty parts are easy to find. "It's a collection of more than 100 stories that span 55 years. They're mostly short and funny. One is long and funny, and serious and chilling. They occurred in early childhood, while in public school and college, and while working in advertising, journalism, telecommunications, and as an amateur attorney. Culture clash is a frequent theme. So are food, phoniness and incompetence. There's lots of sex, drugs and rock & roll. Even the sex and drug stories are funny. Some stories were written as revenge for bad teachers and evil bosses. ... The stories took place in New York, Connecticut and Pennsylvania, between 1952 and 2007"--The author.
