But then again... a mime is a terrible thing to waste.
So true! Who was it on here who wanted to waste the mime? Just don't use a gun, there's something very un-poetic about wasting a mime in such a "noisy" way.

Sometimes I scream a little-or a lot- in my head.
Teachers and people who take care of children are not rewarded enough. They have this huge responsibility of taking care of mommy's little princess in every way and it has to be done fer next to nothin'... and you can't beat the **** out of the little creeps and... Hmmph! You have to... **** I'm happy I'm not a teacher. Kudos to you Grace.

Thanks yvan! I do so love my job, usually I just wish education was seen more as a valuable thing. The next leader of the free (or pricey) world may well be the girl I help whip into shape! Or the boy I teach to multiply. Or the kid I counsel on anger management. I really do appreciate your sentiment! Including the part where I can imagine I **** a **** kid!

That's the thing about teaching, you love it, so that's why you put up with all the peripheral garbage that goes along with it. I can remember looking at my classes at the beginning of the year and thinking that maybe one of them would be a leader in the not-so-distant future. Then, by the end of the year, I was just hoping I wouldn't see any of them on "America's Most Wanted"!

Hope for you that he isn't the leader that will cut your salary or your job... little *****!
I'd fix him right there and then.
