    | I told my sixth period class that the state Senate Education Committee voted 9 to 3 to allow teachers to have guns; uproarious laughter ensued. Gasping, one student asked, "So wait, Señorita, you're going to get a gun?" I replied, "I sure am! How's that for incentive to study!"  My students spent the next 10 minutes giggling and coming up with possible scenarios: Mr. S shoots off a toe every time you say "um" during a presentation, Señorita asks Apoorva to be quiet for the last time, the lunch bunch of room 207 easily smashes Señorita's particle board desk, steals the gun and plays Russian roulette for french fries. We giggled at the absurdity of it all.

                TO REMEMBER |  
              | 
                    
                      | A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C) |  |  |
