sass and sensibility

"I don't see much sense in that," said Rabbit. "No," said Pooh humbly, "there isn't. But there was going to be when I began it. It's just that something happened to it along the way."

Things you don't usually carry to class...

A few minutes ago I was talking to the 8th graders about their homework and the test I was about to hand out. In the middle of my monologue, Flava Flav interrupted me, holding out what appeared to be a balled up napkin.

"I had a sausage in my pocket." Pause while I look at him incredulously. "I didn't want to eat it cuz it was gross. Can I throw it away?"

I nodded and pretty much dissolved into laughter, much to the amusement of the rest of the class. The ridiculousness of the whole situation was just too much for me on a Friday morning...

"is that a sausage in your pocket or are you...."

"it's a sausage."
