I've been teaching the last couple weeks and have therefor not had much time to blog. This summer I am teaching 7th grade language arts to one class of boys and one class of girls. Since I have been in grad school the last year it's been interesting to be back in the classroom. One thing I have thought about as I start teaching again is the number of nicknames I have been dubbed over the years of teaching, some of which reoccur over and over, from year to year, which I guess means they are particularly apt. So here are a few of the names students have called me over the years in no particular order:
-Hunchback/Quasimodo (this is by far the most popular)
-Mr. Noodle (a reference to my broken arm)
-Nezercanezer (this was around the time the Matrix came out)
-Mr. Nezby
-various names that are inappropriate to mention here, many of which involve substituting inappropriate words for the second syllable of my last name.

What, like Mr Nes-butt?
Trip thinks its probably more along the lines of Mr Nesb&*&ch
You forgot Nesbeeto, and I think you should blog about people who self administer their own nicknames. It is a travesty.
One more, I recently was dubbed by a student, "bones." Those who know me will understand why.
