Overexposed


Kids have been defying school dress codes for years. I remember wearing a T-shirt in junior high school which was a play on the logo of the Italian sports apparel line Kappa. Instead of a couple sitting back-to-back, they were stradling each other and the shirt said "Hoppa." Straight to the vice-principal's office for me and a wardrobe change.

Seems that some kids up in Riverdale are having trouble keeping their pants up.

Not Drinking The Kool-Aid


I found this letter on The Smoking Gun. It was sent home from the school head at Alexandria County Day School in Virginia. In September, 2004, the faculty threw a Mexican "fiesta" and margaritas were served. The leftovers were stored in the cafeteria and, when the kitchen staff ran out of milk the next day, "limeaid" was substituted. This is some mea culpa.
