From a very young age‚ I found company in the offices of various principals and teachers. Before I get ahead of myself‚ I’d like to say that I was never really the person who was in trouble. Since preschool‚ children have been taught that there is a sort of “bad kid” to steer clear of. You know the one- rude‚ disruptive‚ and insensitive.

Mnemonic devices are those handy verbal tools that help people remember the names or patterns of larger data items. A classic example of such a device is the little ditty most of us were taught as children‚ the one that begins “Thirty days hath September…” That’s a simple way to remember the lengths of the months‚ one that manages to stick with us well into adulthood.
