» Your Weirdest Teacher

Civics teacher
I sometimes wonder if he took more than he deserved... nah he's strange. Mr. F loves his stapler, when it gets stolen he cries. Sometimes other teachers prank him, along with the kids. I've heard stories of his chair being partially disassembled, those little white snapper things thrown at him when he wasn't looking, he locks his stapler up with a padlock in his cabinet. Lessee... He's got these thick glasses that when you look directly at him, in the glasses you can see way around his head. He will NOT tell anyone anything about his personal life, and DEFINITELY not where he lives. Counted down to the first showing of Star Wars Episode III, and attended. No offense, I loved the movie, but it just adds to your imagination of his... character. Almost over-protective of rules. That's all I know, and it's only the beginning.

I know a pro comedian
no really! Recently we were on a week-long thanksgiving holiday and a friend of mine who's in tenth grade returned to school without a voice. Now there's been a lot of illness going around so I wasn't shocked, but I found out the backstory and I'm really impressed.

We learned it was from screaming... because of witnessing a stranger giving birth (to a stranger, obviously)... on an airplane, unsupervised... in flight from LA... (I live a good 2,000 miles, rougly 3,200 km, from California) after a large comedy gig...

He's about 15 or 16 and the chances of his parents letting him fly alone to LA and back are pretty slim. The most bewildering part is the $750 (£360 or so) grill he had shown us as proof, and said he'd bought with saved up money from shows. His profit now totals around $40,000.

Now, we'd been hearing about his career for a while, but this was just too much.
