There are certain classes that you have to take in high school to graduate.  Some classes you remember even when you get to be my age, and then there are those classes like Geometry that you forget the minute you leave school.

 Unfortunately, then you have children who get to that class and ask you to help them with their homework because dad isn’t home at the moment.  Yikes!
