The Weird Kid In ClassThere was a kid in my class who stood up every day and told everyone he had new shoes. This went on for weeks, and we all thought him nuts. Then, one day, he stood up and told us a long story about why his family were moving to another part of the country, and how excited he was. The next thing we heard was that he'd died in a plane crash.
Let's hear about the weird kid in your class...

"What's that?"It seems Richard had never seen a TV before...
Rather a grand claim to make but as we sat down to watch an education programme on video the teacher wheeled the tv to the front of the class and Richard just said "what's that?".
Turns out his Dad had some major mental issue about TV's and didn't allow them to have one in the house. Instead home entertainment was a large train set and a radio.
Apparently life had managed to keep the little train spotter away from the telly for 9 years and he was mesmerised by the moving pictures.
He must have gone home and not stopped talking about it as his Dad wrote the school and he had to get permission to watch tv programmes at school next time!
