I wore my Pirate earrings in honor of ECU's game today against the Tarholes.

A lot of good that did. . .

A day isn't long enough, especially if it lands on a weekend. It needs to be moved to a weekday. I want to go into work and tell my boss, "Belay there, ye scurvy wench!"

Arrr, what a load o' crap, gar! That is, o' course, unless the student's language was interruptin' class or interferin' with the teacher's ability t' mighty their lesson plan. Damn, but e'en then, I'd hope that the teacher would find a creati'e way t' work around the student's beha'ior.
