Huh? In third grade Sister Kathleen was a bitch about getting perfect cursive handwriting out of her class. I always got "unsatisfactorys" in my handwriting grades. I'd say it was a pre-Vatican II thing, but my mother, who was bullied by a more sadistic class of nuns, has beautiful, beautiful cursive writing. She could never understand why my handwriting grades were so low. I think she secretly thought they didn't use enough rulers at St. Vincent de Paul elementary school.
