And I was surfing the proteacher boards and found this. If you read it aloud, it's even funnier.
In response to President Bush's
Federal "No Child Left Behind Act"
(NCLB), it is proposed that
students will have to pass a test
to be promoted to the next grade
level.
In the hope that this proposal
will be uniformly adopted by all
of the states as well as North
Carolina, the new test will be
called the Federal Arithmetic
and Reading Test, or FART.
All students who cannot pass a
FART in the second grade will be
re-tested in Grades 3, 4, and 5
until they are capable of passing
a FART score of 80%. If a student
does not successfully FART by
grade 5, that student shall be
placed in a separate English
program known as the Special
Mastery Elective for Learning
Language, or SMELL.
If, with this increased SMELL
program, the student cannot pass
the required FART test, he or
she can still graduate to middle
school by taking another one-
semester course in Comprehensive
Reading and Arithmetic Preparation,
or CRAP.
If by age fourteen the student
cannot FART, SMELL, or CRAP, he
or she can earn promotion in an
intensive one-week seminar known
as the Preparatory Reading for
Unprepared Nationally Exempted
Students, or PRUNES.
It is the opinion of the Department
of Instruction for Public Schools
(DIPS) that an intensive week of
PRUNES will enable any student to
FART, SMELL, or CRAP.
This revised provision of the
student component of the House
Bill 101 should help "clear the
air" as part of the "No School
Left Standing" Act.

And, finally, I had such a great evening out with the taekwondo girls Friday. We ate at this fantastic Italian restaurant that I drive by every day on the way to school, and it was yummo! I had tuna with artichokes and began a list. More on the list later. The tuna was excellent-o. But tuna FARTs SMELL.

I can't believe my lovely, southern belle, southern bred, well bred, I might add, daughter still speaks about this unspeakable subject!! All that education and for what? To talk about bodily functions!
ReplyDeleteLove the smilebox, forgot to mention that, my favorite. Love ya
ReplyDeleteAs always, your smilebox album is awesome!!!! And, I am ALSO in shock over your use of words like "fart" and "crap"!!! :) :) Actually, living in a house full of boys, I'm surprised you don't have a smilebox album of yourself making noises with your armpit! :)
ReplyDeleteYour boys are too cute (even with straws up the nose!)
ReplyDeleteLoved the story about no child left behind!
Awe...sweet smilebox! We are so outnumbered, when it comes to our boys! I gave in a LONG time ago, when it came to nature's guttural emissions.
