Why I'm a Teacher - Part 5

I received this today from one of my favorite writers in all the world, a special delivery during lunch time, folded in eighths:

This is a story about a man named Darron and his life
A man full of words and full of life
A man who can never be forgotten, but sometimes never forgiven
A spectacular man that inspires you and gives life to your dreams
A person who never forgets your face whether you were his favorite or not,
Whether he helped you succeed or fail
He is a man full of love for a girl named Pam and guys like him you can hardly find
He is but a mystery
He is a teacher that never gives up and always finds a way to speak up
And although "there is more than meets the eye"
Darron Evans is what makes Darron Evans
His love for Pam is what completes him and so do his students
We are his "legacy" and this is his "legend"

Why You Should Vote

And why you should encourage others to.

I know it's lame that I've posted two YouTube videos in a row, not of my own making, but this one makes a good point. It's not what you expect, so make sure you continue watching it past the first 15 seconds.
