LMBO good one!
Is he calling us dinosaurs?
Polyplayus Sex, perhaps ?
Not as cute as you. ..![]()
I will, when I'm dead...
I will, when I'm dead...
You still have a lot to enjoy.
Why wait, get a head start now. One of my 8th graders (now 31) died in her sleep a couple of days ago.
Let's hope so!
I'm planning on going while I'm in the saddle. The wife's not happy at the prospect.....![]()
I don't blame her! Talking about dead weight!!!
Not if she's on top...
Dakota tribal wisdom says that when you discover you are riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount.
However, government bureaucracies often try other strategies with dead horses, including the following:
1. Buying a stronger whip.
2. Changing riders.
3. Saying things like "This is the way we always have ridden this horse."
4. Arranging to visit other sites to see how they ride dead horses.
5. Increasing the standards to ride dead horses.
6. Appointing a committee to study the dead horse.
7. Waiting for the horse's condition to improve from this temporary downturn.
8. Providing additional training to increase riding ability.
9. Passing legislation declaring "This horse is not dead."
10. Blaming the horse's parents.
11. Acquiring additional dead horses for increased speed.
12. Declaring that "No horse is too dead to beat."
13. Providing additional funding to increase the horse's performance.
14. Commissioning a study to see if private contractors can ride it cheaper.
15. Removing all obstacles in the dead horse's path.
16. Taking bids for a state-of-the art dead horse.
17. Declaring the horse is "better, faster and cheaper" dead.
18. Revising the performance requirements for horses.
19. Saying the horse was procured with cost as an independent variable.
20. Raising taxes (any excuse will do).
And if all else fails:
21. Promote the dead horse to a supervisory position
Ok, you've convinced me, I'll stop beating it...![]()
I don't know why I thought of that when I saw your post. Strange things come to my mind. They usually go to waste without a classroom full of students to use them on.
I'm in love with your strange mind...![]()
That makes you strange.
My students told me they were afraid of me until they were assigned to my class. Then they thought I was funny and weird.
And someone they'll always remember fondly...
I talk to them and in some cases, their parents all the time. One young man I met at his sister's 8th grade promotion. Three years later he was in my class. Today he and his wife had their first child!
