Once they needed a teacher to cover a Hygiene class. It was often assigned as a 5th class to an English or Social Studies teacher who did not have a full load. No one was pretending that anyone needed to learn the mechanics or theory of the subject on an academic level. The class was a gut, a vacation for the teacher and the students. Some students came to me and asked if I was going to be assigned to teach that class. I answered that I doubted it because under me it would be a very short class. They asked what I meant by that. So I looked at them smiled and answered, “Everybody understand the definition of Statutory Rape? What part of No don’t you understand?” The kids laughed and said they understood. I did not get assigned to the class.

Now it is clear, for anyone who had not guessed, just what a Trogladyte I am. The only issue regarding Ms Pallin is; did she tell McCain? If she did and if he smiled and said “So?” then I may be to conservative in my prediction that Obama will top out at 180 electoral votes.
