- Sounds like a great OTB question.
  No, Miss Manley in 7th grade was quite manly.
  Maybe in the lower grades of grammar school but in HS + college know.
  I didn't think my marketing teacher Dariullah Kharullah was hot
  but she made us laugh when talking about receiving ten issues of a magazine and it came out as tennis shoes. We were all laughing wildly after that one.

- I had a very hot teacher in middle school, her first year teaching:-) and one of my other teachers, a science teacher, was almost drooling after her. They dated and finally got married and she quit teaching to have their kids. They did that in those days lol!

If You Were Here, by the Thompson Twins

(Best known from Sixteen Candles...I love love love that movie!!!)

This song, for me, evokes all of those feelings of first love and the hopefulness of it....
