I heard from Skip's teacher.

He could bring in glue-sticks for 'extra credit'. Apparently, every assignment is produced on a hand-out, and is glued into the notebook. They go through glue-sticks like water.

When Skip told me he could bring in 3 glue sticks and get a bit of extra credit, I was ALL OVER THAT.

So yesterday, he brought in glue sticks.

And what did that bump his grade up to?

A BEE PLUS.

Say what?

Apparently, if he brings in 3 boxes of tissues, he can get MORE extra credit.

HELLO STRAIGHT A STUDENT.

Ahem. Does anyone see anything perhaps even marginally wrong with this?
