I used to sneak away every October to go Deer and Elk hunting.  Of course I always called in sick. One time I was in Gunnison getting food and decided to get a hamburger.  Lo and behold there was mrs. Moore.  She was at some kind of administration get together.  Any way she asked me why I was therre and I told her I had Deer/Elk Flu.  She just smiled and told me to enjoy my short lived freedom from school work.  When I went back to school, she called me to her office and made me write a report of my hunting activitys.  The next year I went and told her that I felt the Flu coming back and she just handed me a blank folder and said don't forget your home work.  What a great lady. Lee Lufkin (70) RIP
