Interesting School Story
One of my teacher friends posted this in her blog and it made me laugh:
A student of mine brought a knife to school yesterday. A steak knife, but a knife nonetheless. He said he didn’t know how it got into his backpack. When I asked him who put it there, he told me Stewie from Family Guy did it. WHAT? My little friend is a bit disturbed. I took the knife to the principal who eventually suspended him for a day. When I got upstairs, the same student tried to pay me off. He kept pushing this dollar at me. A DOLLAR!  “Here, Mrs/Ms. [name deleted]. I want you to have it. Go to the book fair and get yourself something nice.”Â

Paris exhibit a children’s guide to sex
PARIS — On a recent weekday, Clemence Dubreuil had no school because her teachers were on strike, so the 9-year-old begged her mother to take her to a museum to see a new exhibit about sex.
If that all sounds very French, it is: Strikes are as much a part of the national character as frank talk about sex. But as the exhibit and the mild controversy surrounding it are proving, the cliches need some updating.
The exhibit in northeast Paris attempts to respond playfully to the serious questions tweenagers ask about sexuality and romantic feeling. Inspired by a guide to sex by the popular cartoonist Zep and writer Helene Bruller, the exhibit also encourages children and their parents or teachers to shed all modesty and embarrassment about touchy topics and start talking.

Holyfield-Tyson III?
AUSTRALIAN trainer Jeff Fenech has explored a possible rematch of the infamous Evander Holyfield versus Mike Tyson “bite” fight.
Tyson, now 41, bit Holyfield, now 45, twice in the 1997 world heavyweight title clash in Las Vegas, ripping off a chunk of his ear, which he spat onto the canvas before being disqualified.
Holyfield has revealed to The Guardian newspaper in London that Tyson wanted a third fight with him and used his friend and trainer, former world champion Fenech as a go-between.
“There has been some talk between us,” said Holyfield, who failed in his quest to regain a version of the world heavyweight title for a record fifth time in October.
“Mike had Jeff Fenech, who’s been training him, call me a few months ago.
“Jeff says Mike wants to fight me again – but he needs to know if I would agree to it.
“I said, ‘It all depends on what they gonna give us – because I’m gonna catch a lot of flak if I say I’m fighting Mike Tyson again. I’ve already said I don’t want to fight Mike no more’.
