Locked in school with a dead body?? Who's gonna pay for their therapy???

It must be a universal thing - seeing fools walking the streets with no concern about oncoming traffic.

At least locking those kids in the school will toughen them up. Those will become some badass kids!

I'mmmm backkkkk, and by cracky I've missed some fine posts.

Did Mr. Ducky give you a free AFLAC duck?

That whole student urinating in a bottle class thing, sucks. As if the student wouldn't get up and work out...

Did you get that new blog working?

I didn't know you could iron nylon! We once had a guy iron a plastic $10 bill.

So Mabel likes Cherry Coke, is that the same stuff as the sonic stuff you drink?

So apart from answering long comment posts, what are you doing with your holidays?

Mahala,
The taxpayers, of course!


Mish,
I usually see them alongside the road in the daytime. These fools were in the middle of the road in the dark in the rain. I suppose these were the foolishest of fools.

Yes, enough of this namby-pamby I'm-OK-you're-OK spoonfeeding-self-esteem educational BS. Let those kids sit with a dead body once in a while. It's a good character-builder.


Lantern,
You certainly are efficient. I suppose it is a trait needed for your line of work.

No, I was stiffed on the AFLAC duck. The last one I got was about 5 years ago. The kids fought over him.

I smelled a stink from the urinator story. I thought the kid staged it to stir up some sh*t. Because if they REALLY had to go, yes, they would walk out. Unless they're psycho, or a troublemaker.

As you can see, this is my new one. I just change the name on the old, and VOILA, I start a new one with the old name.

Ironing nylon is not recommended. Except by the iron manufacturers.

I don't really think Mabel likes it. Somebody was terribly mislead to my blog.

Planning a cookout, and reading, and working on that project that shouldn't have been mine...though the major part of it is done.

Funny...when I see little frogs jumping willy nilly to and fro on the road the only thing I think I faintly hear is "Heeeelp us! Noooooo! Kids, MOVE! Keep jumping, Gladys, we're almost to the ditch!"
Things like that.

Diva,
Wow! Those frogs need to get a Baby Name book and modernize.

Redneck Diva said...

Well, frogs are kind of still primordial and stuff. Give 'em a break.
