An Education is what you get when you Read the Instructions,
Experience is what you get if you don't...
I bet it was caused by a smoker throwing a lit cigarette out of his window!

if you notice my posting went to nill after 11:00 this morning!!!!
nope, this was strictly the straightline 40mpg winds that have been blowing for the past two days.
D00D! that's pretty fuel efficient winds!
it absolutely sucks when its windy and you are on rural electric.
I say you finish with a happy ending.
Interesting Martin,
I specialize in RECs in my job. I'm considering doing a PhD on electricity use in the oil industry.
Metaphors be with you!
Good ol' Slaughterville
well skysooner, I'd like to see rural electricty that didnt' blink or go out when there is a lightning strike within 35 miles.
today, my first day off.
cleaned, dusted,swept and mopped the entire house. changed the oil in the wifes honda and roto-tilled and re-seeded half the back yard.
you'll make somebody a fine wife.
This day was the suck!
First thing this morning a parent pitched a fit in the office. Yesterday his child and another ran into each other - pure accident - and his child got a small cut and a bruise under his eye. We even watched it on video reruns.
Followed by two girls who were scratched on the face by a special student they were helping.
Followed by a kid with serious over-heating.
Followed by a kid who who left his underwear in the grade level bathroom before going back to class. Did I mention he had a serious case of diarrhea? He cleaned himself up well enough that it took 15 minutes to find out who he was and get him sent home.
One kid came into school today with a swollen face - hit yesterday after school by another kid.
And I work at a "good school."
I need another margarita. A large one.

That story's funny as hell.
I'd like to hear how y'all found out who the poopy kid was.
Back when my wife taught, she felt the same way.
Our building is designed so that two grade levels share bathrooms. KN goes to lunch & recess first. Then First grade (they share the bathrooms with KN). Nothing was said about when KN came in from recess. Twenty minutes later, it was "discovered." That meant it was likely that it was a KN kid. Boys bathroom, so that ruled out the girls.
The KN teachers were asked to pay attention to odors in their classroom. One of the kids in the class "told" on the poor child. And he is a nice kid, just embarrased. Or is that just bare-*ssed?

so how long will the other kids call him Johnny Poopypants?
Coulda been worse Martin...my life is pivoting right now on landing a job in the Tulsa area, and selling my house here and buying a house there. I was told by a gal yesterday that I'd hear back from her today about scheduling a potential job interview for next Friday. I didn't hear from her. Maybe I'll hear from her monday.
It's sickening to have students dealing crack in the restrooms.
