Wearing an Apron

It was really amusing. A kid had petitioned me to drop a course several weeks ago (a cooking class) and we approved it. I assumed he knew (I was wrong). The teacher asked me why the kid was no longer in her on-line gradebook. I said that he had dropped the class. She was like, "No he didn't, he's in my class right now. I will send him down to Guidance immediately." The kid showed up wearing his apron...a big burly 17 year old strapping young man walking down the high school halls wearing an apron on his way to the Guidance office. It is really great that amidst all the seriousness and problems in the world, that something funny happens and it is a bright moment of laughter.

Not Dead Yet

Blogs are like old men...once young and vibrant and virile, full of grand ideas. Then, they slow down, start to wheeze, and hack. Soon their dead, like a bug on a car's windshield. Well, this one ain't dead yet...
