Marylin Manson had a rib removed to make himself more flexible.


Dont remember anything else from that far back other than pogs

Monroe claiming Delta is like Mobile claiming Mardi Gras.


It may be true, but no one GAS.

7 pages and nobody mentioned the weird S thing that everyone knew how to draw and that Marilyn Manson removed two ribs so he could suck himself off?

Facts as far as I'm concerned

OT falling off

The difference between a solid, liquid and gas and how they can change into each other.

What the inside of a vagina looks like when a woman is popping out a baby. That still traumatizes me after all these years... why show middle schoolers that

Pluto was our smallest planet.


Our principal, a little old woman named Mrs Watts, had an electric paddle…

While Reginald was home with flu, (uh huh)
The doctor knew just what to do
He cured the infection
With one small injection
While Reginald uttered some interjections
Hey, that smarts!
Ouch! That hurts!
Yow! That's not fair, giving a guy a shot down there

Interjections (hey!)
Show excitement, (yow!)
Or emotion. (ouch!)
They're generally set apart from a sentence
By an exclamation point
Or by a comma when the feeling's not as strong. Mmmm

Niger is not pronounced how a 2nd grader thinks it would


You and I had similar second grade experiences. I was looking at a globe in my second grade class and asked my teacher, Mrs. Heath, if Niger was where (people who annoyed you) came from. She just chuckled and told me "no." It was, after all, the 1968-1969 school year.
