It's not worth the headaches, but at least it helps

After three fights in three days, a scandal worthy of the former White House, and numerous complaints (as usual) about the current administration's lack of administration, you'd think that I'd have little to write that's humorous; however, kids will be kids and incompetents will be incompetents, so here are the highlights:

1. A social studies teacher is leading a unit over the Middle East. After he allowed each student to draw a country, one student asked, "Where are all the other countries like Germany and all that?"
2. I warned two students three times to keep their voices down in the library this afternoon. A class was working on a portfolio and the one student has only one volume; the other doesn't care. But when one decided to aggravate the other and the other slapped the one in a boy's playful (albeit stupid) way, I threw them out--loudly--on the spot; as a result, I not only cleared them out, but six other students, as well. The class got extra quiet, as did the three staff members who were in there at the time...

I know there are other things and I will post as I remember (and one I can't post, as hard as I've tried), but for right now, I hope you can at least have a smile.
