EEEEEEE!! They're like caterpillars! <BR/><BR/>Tell that husband of yours to watch it - the DIBS (Department of Ice Baby Services) is keeping their eye on him. I don't know who tipped 'em off. <BR/><BR/><B>Lanternlight</B>, oh that wasn't the <I>only</I> version of the Nantucket limerick I wrote. *wink*<BR/><BR/><B>Lori</B>, it would be just my luck that I'd become famous for ridiculous limericks rather than my scathingly brilliant <I>real</I> writing! <BR/><BR/><B>Kelly</B>, aw thanks! I can write oodles of limericks when I'm avoiding the real homework!<BR/><BR/><B>Mrs. E</B>, at least you let your students pick a poet. Ours were assigned. I got stuck with "She Walks in Beauty" by George Gordon and Lord Byron. <BR/><BR/>And have I mentioned I'm not a big fan of the poem anyway? Men don't really believe the things poems make you think they believe. If there were poems written about them scratching their genitals and lighting farts, <I>then</I> I'd be a believer. <BR/><BR/>Expect a panicky email from me soon asking you HOW to analyze a poem.Redneck Divahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13506685036989431733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11314587.post-72720623641438723772007-04-11T19:44:00.000-05:002007-04-11T19:44:00.000-05:00Guess what my seniors are doing here at the last o...Guess what my seniors are doing here at the last of school. Yep, they get to pick a British poet, write about the poet, write about the time period that influenced the poet, and analyze a poem by the poet. They get to cite from 3 sources, write a thesis and outline, and give me 3 pages of type written information. English teachers the world over are evil at the end of school. These seniors may have been the bane of my existence for 8 months but now revenge is mine...except I will have to read and grade them. Oh well it can't be all fun and games for the teacher either.Mrs. Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00954640693567531929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11314587.post-40017721829685947812007-04-11T16:32:00.000-05:002007-04-11T16:32:00.000-05:00These are hilarious...especially the last one.These are hilarious...especially the last one.Kellyologyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16431369740339820876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11314587.post-30827683075746986812007-04-11T09:08:00.000-05:002007-04-11T09:08:00.000-05:00Scathingly brilliant!

Who knew?<BR/><BR/>FYI, there was another terrible Ice Baby faux pas here in Hillmomba last week. Not only did we forget Ice Baby in the car...we forgot Ice Baby altogether. We stopped specifically to buy her, and didn't. HH had to pick up an Ice Baby on his way home. The HH Ice Baby was a lesser Ice Baby. He did not even wrap her up, just threw her onto the seat of his truck. She was hardly fit for man or beast by the time he got her home.Hillbilly Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18067833789262242514noreply@blogger.com
