School Types With 1300 pupils in a 900 pupil school, one wonders how anyone was so foolish as to name man "homo sapiens". However, that is not the subject of this discourse. I shall attempt to catalogue the various types of methods used by our species to traverse the corridors of this sardine can. 1) GARGANTUA- 6'6, 310 lbs. - known with affection at police station as the most likely to be a top Mafia capo. - marches through halls, seldom has to push as people aren't going to get in his way and he knows it. -fortunately rather rare. 2) REMORA - named for fish that follows sharks (this fish follows Gargantua - moves freely in temporary gaps made by Gargantua and continues in this manner 3) FERRET - small but nimble - ducks and dodges and runs through halls - often effects of passing are uncertain - synonym- will o 'wisp, feux follets 4) EEL - origin unknown, probably an older ferret - slips and oozes around people into brief gaps 5) MATADOR - often seen trying to get through line to class on other side--often seen not trying too hard. - special characteristics--placing of book in front of body to create passage way. When this fails it gracefully executes a half swirl with great finesse, at the same time gringing books to side. 6) TACKER - named for L1pwind sailing manouver - travels through corridors from one side to another, thereby not becoming discouraged by setting large goals. (see fig 1-1-6) 7) PLODDER - most common of varieties, resembles cattle in general makeup. - travels same speed and same direction as everyone else. 8) BUFFER - exceedingly popular, hard to miss. - always accompanied by entourage of which he is center, thereby creating a relatively push-free envirenment for himself. 9) TEACHER - special characteristic -- up the down stair case. - acts arbitrarily, decision based on variety of special considered but usually acts to provide clearage for own variety. - also eliminates both harmful and harmless activities of other varieties indiscriminately. (exception, Gergantua) - individual members reffered to by colourful synonyms.
