Here are three other things from the past (week) that left behind traces of  happiness and gratitude, with a nod to good  teachers and their enduring effect on us.</p> <ol> <li><p>Microscopes – Plant or animal, that was, and wasn’t, the question. </p> </li> <li><p>Jacknife – The right tool at the right time is a small joy,</p> </li> <li><p>Drama – Junior high school drama helped me. </p> </li> </ol> <p>The original music in the podcast is from Brendan McGrath.

The end bells are courtesy of Edmonton metal artist and O’Leary class of ‘82 alum, Slavo Cech. </p> <p>I am at <a href="mailto:glenn.kubish@gmail.com">glenn.kubish@gmail.com</a>.
