Try as one might, there was no way in hell you WEREN'T going to get infrickindelible black ink from staining the desk, your papers, your clothing and always the tips of your fingers.Going to school meant bringing your own cleaning supplies because it really didn't matter how messy you began the day, as long as how clean it was when you left the joint.fitsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14950915.post-45314045915490767582011-01-14T08:30:21.000-05:002011-01-14T08:30:21.000-05:00Pretty much my thoughts as well. Calling the cops ...Pretty much my thoughts as well. Calling the cops is something lefties do as a matter of course, especially teachers. This I know from being close enough to 80,000 college kids who have their own police force(s) yet cannot begin to keep up with what folks today feel is a police-able offense. 13 is still too young to have any sense whatsoever and pretty soon we'll be needing even more cops than we have and what we have is twice as many as we should need. This is why the cops recommend calling them instead of working out the small shit by yourself.<br /><br />Job security.fitsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14950915.post-5806864624539628572011-01-14T08:00:15.000-05:002011-01-14T08:00:15.000-05:00Getting the police involved in these matters is ex...Getting the police involved in these matters is extreme. Seems like something vindictive totalitarian leftists would do. I more rational and traditional approach would be the warning, detention, suspension, expulsion route. And make the kid clean up the mess or pay for it. <br /><br /> Knowing how I was as a seventh grader - I could see the kid using the paper as an excuse - "Hey I wasn't writing on a desk! I was writing on paper and it accidentally went through!" So that doesn't necessarily wash with me. <br /><br />As to the woman is the circus tent; She looks like she is one of the decent members of the Tea Party. ( right ).bah_humbugnoreply@blogger.com
