The Daily News
1 So...Jezebel the Jaguar walks into a bar...Happy Hollow's own superstar died earlier this week from complications of liver and kidney diseases.
2 Jezebel has been a mainstay at Happy Hollow for over 22 years. Sad, sad, sad. Oh, well, so it goes; so it goes.
3 So...the hockey season walks into a bar...
4 That's just a terrible statement, all around. What a tragedy, to see a professional sport simply canning a season. Nobody wins, and LOTS of people and businesses are affected. I hope this doesn't cause too many layoffs, but it is inevitable. I hope Henry's Hi-Life lives through this!
5 Ah, well, it doesn't LOOK like it, but it's Springtime, and baseball is right around the corner, so you could kick back with a good book (Canseco's tell-all might be a golden read!) and watch Barry deny stories about the "clear" and the "cream", and Mark Magwire slimming down due, no doubt, to a fancy new diet, and...
6 All right, let's change direction.
7 You almost HAD to admire whoever it was who took Michael Jackson to pediatrics the other day. He had a cold, and his nose was running.
8 He's lucky it didn't fall off.
9 Auditions continue tomorrow for the Spring Musical. I mean guys, come on! There are schools that would KILL to have this opportunity, and it's being offered to all of you. Today, after school, in Room P-61. Those video games and mall trips will still be thereafter May. Hello?
10 It's Spring, and the world is puddle-wonderful.
11 Well, I guess I could use a week off here. Two days in a row we had both THIS building AND our portables blacked out, and were still expected to keep business as usual. Piano kids had to carry their pianos over to Rocha's room, and I had fourth and fifth periods in the dark.
12 I loved that the electricity came back exactly when I was done teaching for the day. My world and welcome to it.
13 Anyway..
14 Well, it's Springtime...and...
15 See you all again.
16 Peace.
