The Mouse and the Motorcycle.

Superfudge.

Lady I owe you some sugar.

That little thing Mrs. Blanco did with her tongue to show us how to speak Spanish correctly.

On this doll, show us where Mr. Brown touched you.

Good times!

Chrispus Attucks was killed at the Boston massacre
They always claim he was black and the first man killed in the American Revolution.

There is ZERO evidence to back up either claim.

Not elementary school but high school:

-Brother Gordian
Catholic High

That and how the Gulf Steam works. “Na na na na Nah Gulf Stream, Gulf Stream.” Hand movements go with singing this to depict the flow around Florida and up towards England.

Someday in the distant future, a generation of idiots will piss on mankind's greatest achievement and believe the Moon Landings were faked.

I have never met a White person named Crispus or Attucks.

Come to think of it, I have never met a person of any color with either of those names.
