One of my besties just sent me a link to this article. VERY interesting, yet infuriating, reading.
Why so much disrespect toward teachers?

Grrr....
WHY are these people on the planet?! I don't understand it. Stories like this make me want to hurt someone. Namely, the assbags that would hurt children!!! ARGH!
**a couple of you have commented that you can't watch the video, but if you scroll down, under the video box, you'll see the print story. And, just to be clear, the video isn't anything gruesome, it's just the newscaster talking about the story.

Ding, dong the crazy terrorist is dead!
This will just be one more reason I love the month of May. May Day will have a whole new meaning for me from now on.

Do you know about this?
Thanks to Tiffany, I've found my Saturday morning obsession. I've already been reading for over an hour. Thought I'd take a break to share it with you. Although, I'm sure I'm probably one of the last to know about this site!
It's called detentionslip.org, and it's basically all news stories of crazy and outrageous things that happen at schools, with students, teachers, principals, etc. I've added it to my blogroll, since I'm sure I'll be obsessed with it for a while.

Bridal Party from Heaven!
OK, apparently, I must be quite hormonal today, because this made me tear-up. I found myself thinking, "Wow, how much must your family and friends love you to do this for you?" and I just couldn't stop the tears.
Weird little side note: My good buddy, Smiley, posted the exact same video to her blog today. I saw it after I posted this. Weird, right?
***Ok, after posting this bright and early this morning, I decided to flip through the morning shows on TV. Literally, as soon as the TV came on, this video was playing on Good Morning America. They had the bride and groom on, also, and talked to them about it. When the segment finished, I flipped over to the local morning news show that I normally watch, and they were just talking about it, and started playing the video. Too funny! And, now, I've noticed that my Bloggy Buddy, Clippy, has also added it to her post today. How cool that one couple spread so much joy!

Pictures!
7:00 am We started our day nice and early! I don't know why I'm always so surprised when I see a picture of Stud Muffin and his best friend. You'd think I'd be used to the size difference by now! They've been best friends since kindergarten, and they've always looked like father & son!
There were SO many boys there early, before school started, that Studly had to come back during his lunch period to get shaved. (The boys weren't allowed to miss class to participate.) I think he had a sudden case of nerves when they finally put him in a chair!
To see what happened in between, check out the boring video! I asked the shaver to go to the skin, but she must not have heard me. Most boys were given a choice of having it shaved to a 1 (what Stud has) or a 0, which is basically to the skin. I think she should have given him a 0. He's still not too sure about the new do...
He got over it pretty quickly, though! (I LOVE this picture of him, his face is so damn cute!!)
I love that they had this set up for photo ops!
For some reason, all his friends felt the need to rub his head for luck. It was actually kinda cute.
The boys who participated received a T-shirt, ski cap, button, and some pencils. He likes his hat.
His best bud joined in on the fun. I was going to take a picture of them together, but my battery died!!
Here's Stud Muffin with the local celeb, Pat Elwood. (Go to the previous post to watch some video from Fox News)
Stud looks so much like CSJ now, that it's making me sick to my stomach >:( Especially in this picture. CSJ normally wears a flat-top, but for the 6 months that he was in the police academy, he kept his hair exactly like this. I think I mentioned once before that I used to hold a study group at our apartment every Sunday while he was in the academy, and after it was over, I would shave his and his friend's heads. Every week!
I was able to take some video of the actual shaving, but let me warn you now, it's kinda long and boring. I'm just posting it because I took it!

While Stud was getting shaved, the video clip from the previous post was being filmed. When you hear the crowd start to roar, it's because Pat Elwood was broadcasting and getting his head shaved.
I found out today that Stud Muffin can continue to collect donations for up to a year after the event, so you can still help the cause. Yay! You can click on the link to the right and donate when the time is right for you :) I don't know what the final results were at school as far as who the top fundraiser was. Nonetheless, Stud Muffin had a wonderful total. At last check, it was $2,165!! Thanks so much to all my generous friends out in Blogistan!
Check it out!
OK, so far, this is what I've been able to get from the Fox website. This was taped live at Stud Muffin's school. I was there, so I obviously couldn't watch it live on television, but I'm pretty sure he was shown on screen. My mother said she saw me at one point. This was labeled "Part 1" so I'll be checking back and adding any video that's added to the Fox site. I'm sitting here watching the reports live on Fox News at Noon, and there was some video shown of "the girl" this morning!! She wasn't allowed to shave her head at my son's school, so she did it at her old grade school.
I'm going to start downloading the pictures and video I took this morning, so check back!
~~For some reason, I can't get the video to embed, so if it's not working above, click on this link.

And this clown was supposed to be helping our former governor get out of prison early! Haha!
