Title: Article in the Paper...
Post by sun s h i n e on Jan 8^th, 2006, 8:56am

So I was reading the Sunday paper this morning...and happened to run across a little article about John (and it had a very nice picture, might I add...). �So I thought I'd share...=)

"It's hard to imagine the Goo Goo Dolls' Johnny Rzeznik, whose latest single, Better Days, is from a CD that's due this spring, as a social studies teacher. �But that's what he would be doing if the band's first hit song, 1995's Name, hadn't taken off. �'I set a deadline for 30 that if [music] wasn't my full-time job and I wasn't making a living, I'd give it up. �Twenty-nine came, and I was,' �Rzeznik, 40, tells us. �But why the fallback plan to teach? �'My mother was a teacher. �I have good friends who are. �I admire how much they do and how little they get for it.'"

I agree - I don't think teachers get enough for how much they do. �I absolutely adore my teachers. �I thought that was a nice way to start my Sunday. �=)

I don't if I could concentrate if he was my teacher, though! haha.

Teaching? Thought it was plumbing.
