I was walking to work this morning when I was seeing Mr. Gonzalez, my old Spanish teacher. He was

wearing a leather jacket and carrying a guitar. I ask him how he was. He said, ‘Fine. I go to my band

practice.’ I said, ‘What band?’ He replied ‘I don’t teach any more. It wasn’t really the best job for me. A few

years ago I was starting a band called The Big Easy. We don’t make much money, but I’m liking the
