On a lighter note...

After my rant last night, I just had to put this on my blogsite. It happened during my first class today when I was teaching.  We were discussing the Progressive Era and election reform. I was telling them about recall elections. This is what went down:

"So if people are really unhappy with their elected official, they can have a special erection to try and...did I just say erection?"

A student: "That's okay, it's like a science teacher saying orgasm instead of organism."

You can't make this stuff up!
