Mr. Rogers
a.k.a. Mr. Bill Gallop
"It's a beautiful day in the Sophomore
Religion-hood."
"The trolley is my shepard, I shall not change my shoes."
Ok, first of all, that last
quote is JUST A JOKE, I REPEAT, JUST A JOKE!
I am not trying to be sacrilegious, nor am I trying to make fun of God or the
Bible in any way... it's just ironic that he's my religion teacher.... oh
whatever!!!!!
As all of you SSA Sophomores that are reading this know, most of us have Mr. Gallop as our religion teacher for sophomore year (or, as he calls it, "our very special faith journey", because, as we all know, "each and every one of us is special" to him.)! We've all, in the most loving of ways, have come to know Mr. Gallop (behind his back) as "Mr. Rogers", as in "Mr. Roger's Neighborhood". This comes about because the two have a striking resemblance to each other, both physically and mentally. Here are some lists about Mr. Gallop that Summer & I came up with.
Mr. Gallop is a really nice guy, so this isn't making fun of him, we're just pointing out similarities.
Note: We realize that, to some of you (Aaron....), this attack on Mr. Roger's character may seem offensive. Yes, Mr. Rogers was a good man, and some of the things we say about him may not be true (like the toupee comment). We hope you understand that it's all for a laugh and for our entertainment of our sick minds.
