Nice... I will fly in/out there to avoid Logan.  Sister up in Vermont.  Sister in laws in Massaholachussetts... LoL... Sorry, I couldn't resist.  

 

MHT used to be an awesome airport...until Southwest started flying out of Logan. We used to have them all to ourselves.

i was right after that era.  the priests could be mean to you, but they wouldn't hit you anymore.

 

the nuns were famous for smacking wooden rulers across the knuckles.

Yep, I vividly remember the principal of my first elementary school having a paddle shaped and painted like a tennis racket proudly on display.

 

One time in kindergarten, our whole class had to march down to his office to watch a classmate get “paddled”.  The kid bawled his eyes out, but in hindsight I’m pretty sure there was no actual physical pain, just shame and embarrassment. Still, a pretty jacked up way of doing things. This was a public school, circa 1980.

 

Then I switched to Catholic school in 2nd grade. There was no corporal punishment, however, those nuns played some terrifying psychological games. Hell, I’d take the paddle over Sister Jane Marie’s coffee breath all up in my grill any day.

 

I guess the Catholics advanced before the public schools did in the 60's.

My Junior high shop teacher had "Mr. Ash". It was a friggin Louisville Slugger that he planed down into a paddle. He had broken/crackedit at least once, so the business end was wrapped in fiber glass. That dude was a dick, but also kind of a cool mofo. He did teach us all to crush the other man's hand when you shake hands. We were going to some wood skills event, and he wanted us to shake hands with one other teacher there, I guess to show how tough his kids were.

Probably a fine group of well mannered people from that class !!
