That's the thing that strikes me odd. A group of teachers were bored on their break and decided that those kids needed the wits scared out of them. Doesn't make sense to me. I'm guessing that somebody higher up approved this.

Evidently, you could be principal at an elementary school in Murfreesboro.

You never know. You just never know.
You know, these sorts of things wouldn't be an issue if every kid was packing.

Of course, changing the channel from Cartoon Network to the news would be a lot of more of a high stakes event.

They do a lot of reading, math, social studies and science too.

But are they getting enough mortal terror? I think not.
Well, now, Is that the responsibility of the schools? Shouldn't that be taught in the home?

Eventually, your kids will wise up and buy you tap shoes. Then you can't skulk around without waking them up.

Well, Puffy's "do-it-yourself root canal" kit wasn't exactly the best idea either.

I still maintain that you get some really neat craft ideas at the Civil War Dental Surgery Museum in Richmond, Virginia.

Anyone need a necklace made out of bone?

Dabvu, you make some really good posts and you nearly always mean well with what you post. I'm just not sure this was the appropriate post to joke at a very serious situation.

Hope you're not offended by me posting this.

Re: Teachers stage fake gunman attack on sixth-graders

I have planned hundreds of exercise scenarios due to my job. And this is not the way to go about it. But everybody should know that by common sense alone.
