Stampin' out Ignorance: a Humorous Look at Teaching and Marriage Diane Holloway

No one knows more about classroom humor than a teacher (unless it's a student). If teachers hope to survive, they better have a sense of humor. Nobody knows more about the quirky behavior of some teachers than administrators and vice versa. The origin is laid clear of the phrase "Those who can, do; and those who can't do, teach."Marital partners also need a sense of humor. With nearly four decades of teaching and marital experience, Bob Cheney delights readers as he attempts to "stamp out ignorance." With his matrimonial partner, a psychologist, a contrast of personalities produces hilarious predicaments. No marriage is perfect, least of all this one. Anecdotes illustrate how two people with different lifestyles can live together in relative harmony. And then there are funny things that happen outside of teaching or marriage. Students, teachers, administrators and couples can relate to these amusing tales.
