School of hard knocks
I thought it was tough when my teachers made me sit in the corner… at least they didn’t have the class beat the snot out of me.
SEAGOVILLE, Texas — Elementary school students say that a teacher made them line up and slap a classmate.
But wait… that’s not all. Here’s the real insanity:
Parents in the district are shocked by the allegations.

Mike pointed me to the hilarious bulletin board discussion chronicling the exploits of community of tech savvy people and what happens when a con artist tries to cheat one of them out of a laptop.
A warning in advance… the thread is really really really long. You may want to start by reading it to get the feel (it is worth digging in a little to enjoy the group as they feed off each other). When you get overwhelmed by the volume move over to one of the summary pages to get the Cliff’s Notes version.

I used to be the man…
Steve grabbed the top googleblogtag ranking from me and bengt quickly hopped in to kick me while I was down. Perhaps I am not quite geeky enough (yes, Tami, I’ve left myself wide open :)).
Boy, this blog gets more exciting every day.

Who’s the man?
[Edit: Whose? What was I thinking? Should have sumbitted to my editor first]
The gauntlet was thrown and a sound thrashing was handed out. Bow before me!
