    I headed down to Mr. Rusello's quarters, and he wasn’t there. I saw one of his men, do you know where Mr. Rusello can be found?” “I believe he’s in the new room we just opened.” “Thanks” I headed to the room, walking into the room, Mr. Rosello was standing by the window. “Are you thinking or looking?” “Hello sir, didn’t know you were back.” “Just arrived a few minutes ago. What do you think?” “This window and room remind me of home. We had a room like this, my mothe

    Adam will continue until he has everything the way he wants it. As I wrote this story I wished I had the opportunity to go to this school.

    I think the reader happened upon the chapter and hadn't followed the story from the beginning. Most likely was searching for stories to read and happened to pick that chapter

    no, not that many. I am focusing on Adam but there are quite a few more chapters

    You are reading ahead. Remember the music director resigned, so he has an open directorship.

    He's coming back to do some more work for Adam.. I think there will be more surprises in accounting.

    There will always people who have no conscience and feel that it is a joke when they harass other people. I'm sorry your friend had to go through that and I'm glad he is feeling better. I could never understand when people decide that their obligation stops when they think a problem has been solved., As a teacher you know what the students hear, "When you are finished, go back and check it over, look for errors". Obviously the person who found those two A**holes the apartment didn't go back and check. I pray your friend continues to have the peace of a quiet home.

    The lion pie through you. The one quiet member of the Board who recognized his college, I think will play a more prominent role. He will be enthusiastic to see something oif his old college in America.

    Chapter 54

    Rather than have lunch, we headed out to take pictures. We found the school, took a face picture, and then climbed to the top and took a picture of the back. We smiled, “I need to get these developed and maybe we can grab some fish and chips or onion pie.” Onion pie, that has to be interesting. We dropped the film off to be developed and blown up for presentation. While that was happening, we stopped at a pub, I had some kind of orange drink, non-alcoholic, and onion pie. He had steak and k

    I'm assuming you know that cooked onions do not have the problem with your breathe. Now cheese and onion pie sounds good. have you eve had onion and potato pie? I'll bet that would be good as well. With the Ambassador on Adam's side plus the connections the Ambassador has, I think Adam does not have anything to fear, except work

    Yes, but with an adequate staff in the Academy, an intelligent Board of Directors for both, and hand selected teachers, he should be able to handle it.

    That is a good question. I get the I'm press ion that this function of trustee is just another line on a curriculum vitae

    A lot of what Adam does seems to be logical. When I was in High School, I was teach when it came to math and science. I used a little of that experience in this story. But for me, a lot of it seems to be common sense, I think.

    Yes, definitely;y old school. I like his come back to the use of the switch or rod..

    No they don't. It's unfortunate that Adam had to hear from the architect. I had onion pie one time at an English pub. It wasn't what I expected but it was quite tasty.

    I'm sure it does. I think soon Adam will name his own salary and they will pay

    Yes lard can be used and I think that is available in the US. I know that English recipes that call for suet are substituting lard.

    Yes, I wonder how they were selected. I'm not sure what their backgrounds are, but they certainly didn't know their responsibilities.

    Chapter 52

    After dealing with Arlean, they probably expected the same. They weren't expected Adam to be so professional. I'm sure Arlean sent them a report, when she retired explaining why in her terms.

    You are right, this is heaven for Adam. Imagine a teacher who has an innovative way of teaching and the students are enjoying it, a teachers dream.

    Chapter 53

    Dinner that evening was an informal dinner. It was at the home of the trustee that questioned me at the meeting. He was very cordial to me but still a little cool. A few of the guests came to talk to me and politely asked about my book. One of the guests asked what I did before joining the staff at the Academy. I told them I was teaching at a University and tutoring children who were having a difficult time learning. This led to my favorite subject, the training of school teachers. One of the gu
