"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

This prompted Leif to comment that it looked like a Jackson Pollock.

Genius! Evil Genius Intent On Dominating The World and Laughing his Less Than Benign Laugh!

Or possibly just taking over the NY Art world. Also with an evil laugh.

Nah, he doesn't seem real interested in perusing an art career, he is split on being an engineer, a rock star, or something else, medical I think. So basically Buckaroo Bonzai.

So a kid who missed most of the last two weeks just walked into my (empty) classroom and said, "I want to turn in my work today."

Um, honey, when you were here last thursday, I said the last day to turn in work was friday. you didn't come on friday. I've already turned grades in.

Seriously? It's the LAST DAY OF SCHOOL. WTF?

Awesome duck travels 2 miles to save ducklings:

The six ducklings fell down an underground access and were swept away – but mum could not fit through it.

So the mallard followed their frantic quacks overground across two main roads and a railway line until they stopped under a manhole in Gosforth, Newcastle.

She then sat quacking loudly for at least four hours until jogger Peter Elliott, 59, and daughter Vicki Jefferson, 30, stopped to see what was wrong with her.

They were amazed to hear the faint sound of quacking coming from under the cover and, with the help of friend Jim Calder, lifted it off with a crowbar.

They were even more stunned to see the six ducklings below — and lifted them all out to safety with a child’s fishing net.
