From the mouths of middle schoolers

February 1st, 2008 · 7 Comments

I like sugar in my coffee and was stirring a hot cup this morning when the question came. She’s a sweet girl, really.

“Mr. Wondra, can we eat fresh fruit in here?”

“Yes.”

“Can I go get my apple?”

“Sure.”

A few minutes passed.

“Mr. Wondra, do you have a knife?”

“No.”

“Of any kind?”

“No C___, I don’t have a knife of any kind.”

“Uggh . . . (frustrated sigh) Are you sure?”

“Positive.”

“You’re lying.”

“What?”

“You don’t have a knife, at all . . . of any kind.”

“No.”

“What about that spoon?”

“Um . . . ” I couldn’t control the grin spreading across my face. “Yeah, what about it?”

“Stop laughing at me. You’re so mean.”

    Feel free to “moderate” this comment out, but I just wanted to let you know that one of the search terms that brought someone to my blog was “chris wondra ass”.

    No joke. :)

    Are you kidding!?!? That’s way too funny to moderate out.
    Yikes!
    Do you think they thought I was an ass? Or was it that they were actually searching for images and forgot the ’s?

    Thanks for that. You made my night.

    Chris
