Lifeguard

Today I was teaching high school PE. It was wonderfully simple. All you do is sort of watch the kids play basketball and make sure they don't hurt themselves. Once in a while you throw in a "no kicking" or "pull up your shorts." At the end of the day you whistle everybody out. If I wore sunglasses and had a tan, I think I could have passed for a pool lifeguard. It reminded me of a quote an old friend of mine shared with me: "Good times are had when you're having fun."
