Lipstick in School -- Priceless!!

According to a news report, a certain private school in Washington

recently was faced with a unique problem. A number of 12-year-old girls

were beginning to use lipstick and would put it on in the bathroom.

That was fine, but after they put on their lipstick they would press

their lips to the mirror leaving dozens of little lip prints. Every

night the maintenance man would remove them and the next day the girls

would put them back.

Finally the principal decided that something had to be done. She

called all the girls to the bathroom and met them there with the

maintenance man. She explained that all these lip prints were causing a

major problem for the custodian who had to clean the mirrors every

night. To demonstrate how difficult it had been to clean the mirrors,

she asked th e maintenance man to show the girls how much effort was

required. He took out a long-handled squeegee, dipped it in the toilet,

and cleaned the mirror with it. Since then, there have been no lip

prints on the mirror.

There are teachers, and then, there are educators.

Dear Dog ....

I'm so sorry about you being sent to the dog pound

for the broken lamp, which you didn't break;

the fish tank you didn't knock over;

the carpet that you didn't wet;

and the wall that you didn't mess up with Red paint......

Things here at the house are much calmer now

and to show you that I have no hard feelings toward you,

I'm sending you a picture so you will always

remember me.

Best Regards,

The Cat
