Stupid Human Tricks

I know I have another one, but this one is the one I remember.

One of my former principals--one I didn't care for much when I worked with him in that capacity--is now back as a teacher. He teaches the "ruffians."

Today, his cell phone came up missing. After a feverish search, he concluded that one of his students had stolen it, and he knew which one had. He called in the school resource officer and two administrators and they all went to the alleged offending student's locker.

Imagine the scene.

Teacher: My phone plays The Lone Ranger theme, so if we hear that, we'll know it's mine.

The assistant principal dials. The Lone Ranger plays.

Teacher: See! I told you that kid took it! It's in the locker!

The three others bend toward the locker to listen.

Principal: Steve, I don't think it's coming from the locker.

The song was coming from Steve's belt. He'd covered his cell phone with his sweater.

Today was one of those days I was glad to be a teacher. =)
