(This is something that I've wanted to post about for a while but haven't been able to upload the associated image. Now I can.)
My daughter is going into the 5th grade this fall and there is always in the back of my mind the possibility of her being 'indoctrinated' with all sorts of crap.
Last year when she was in the 4th grade, she would have a weekly assignment that was to focus on something about California. Each week, the kids would have to research geographic, historical, and current events subjects that started with a specific letter, i.e. for the letter A she would research Alameda County, for S, she'd look up information about Salinas, etc.
The work would have to be done in one of those composition notebooks and the teacher would tell the kids to decorate the borders of the pages with drawings of things beginning with that week’s specific letter. Again, if she were working on the letter A, she'd draw things like The Alamo, aardvark, antelope, etc. (I suggested that she look in her Children's Dictionary for things that begin with the letter to help her along).
Well, the week she was working on the letter F, she got stuck for things to draw. I suggested something that my wife immediately said NO to because it might get my kid in trouble.

And, I thought I was bent.
I needn't have worried, I see.
Only one thing managed to get all the way across my mind before the picture came up... Howard Stern as "Fartman"... I thought of that and got as far as "Oh, no Mikey, not..." *pong*... omg-lmao.
You so crazy...
