Inexplicable Memory Quirkily Unhinged

A rhetorical question finds me asking (to no one in particular) why I recall the names of grade school teachers approximately fifty years ago (whose names listed below), when the need to retrieve necessary information due ring examinations (less time ago) often found me seized with sudden inability to remember any vital ants sirs (even including my name), thus grudgingly handing over blank test paper analogously surrendering a vital document gracing terms of defeat into the scaly claws (zen nay), sans first to sixth grade Precambrian relic (Missus Batson, Missus Rittenhouse, Missus Wells, Mister Stout, Missus Shaner, or Miss Rinderle). Invariably majority of first thru sixth grade accorded accredited ancient authenticated creatures. They freely exercised diabolical churlish beastial animalistic zeal us yakking, wickedly unprintable upon (unprincipled urchin) at receiving end of fiendishly grue some hellish instructions. Assign ments buttressed with ultimatums harkening back to Jurassic period earlier in dawning primate con sciousness. Lesson material kindled with justifiable license in league with garnered insignia. Heft to bring pupils to heal predicated via warp and weft woven wonder fully. Wrought writs welcomed whips with warranty whenever recalcitrant ruffian refused respecting reptilian rubric repre sentative rattling (The Idler Wheel Is Wiser Than the Driver of the Screw and Whipping Cords Will Serve You More Than Ropes Will Ever Do), which loosely rendered regularly warbled wishy washy verse curmudgeons freedom granted to interpret as one decrepit, hawkish insignia certified one beaming Eve and/ or stud deed brute soffit. Education often relied on the weekly reader, and letters to and/or from Aunt Emma. Nefarious mean linkedin kickstarter jawboning torturous treatment tolerated, asper imps of the pervert, mutant Ninja Turtles duty bound antsy youthful yokel yodelers weathering ululating sing-song and quintessential precepts.
