Or maybe you just had a dumb teacher. I’m willing to give you the benefit of the doubt. I’m sure the weenie Obama campaign would.

Truly scary, but it doesn’t concern me as much as the laughter and knowing nod of Mrs. Hatmandu when I showed her the clitoris metaphor.

I was serving a detention when one of the detention hall teachers came and just stood next to me, saying nothing. I looked down, and she had used her sandaled toe in the sand to draw a perfect likeness of the 1977 Pittsburg Steelers defense line, plus Bart Starr. Without saying a word, she ducked her head and ran through sniper fire back into the building. I don’t know why the incident just sticks in my mind, out of the days in detention.</p> Yeah, but I had a similar experience my sophomore year in high school.
