(http://images.ibsys.com/2005/0311/4276244_200X150.jpg) Police said Christopher Bochin, 22, sent two students to his car to get marijuana and a smoking pipe. "What he did he sent two students, apparently, to his personal vehicle to retrieve his marijuana and a smoking pipe," Fresno police spokesman Gregg Sanders said. "When the two students returned, Mr. Bochim and approximately 10 students smoked the marijuana in class." Police were called to the school after teachers and students smelled pot and a teacher discovered a text message on a student's cell phone sent from one of the kids smoking pot. Bochin faces felony drug charges and misdemeanor counts of contributing to the delinquency of minors. Also, many of the students could be expelled. Bochin is free on bail and is to appear in court March 23. Watch Local 6 News for more on this story. Title: Re: It's always 4:20 somewhere.

"We were discussing the evils of prohibition and I thought, what would make a more interesting demonstration than smoking a fattie with my buds and getting busted by the pigs?"

Oh, that's right, those columbine kids didn't smoke pot.
Sure, what this numbnuts did was /stupid/. But a felony? Can't we save those for, you know, important things, like murder, armed robbery, and corporate fraud? I'm with Hammy, what the hell was he thinking? Title: Re: It's always 4:20 somewhere. Post by: Mesozoic on March 11, 2005, 11:33:55 AM Principal: OK kids, here's your new teacher. We have, of course, done all the appropriate background checks and are prepared to present this man as a role model.
Teacher: Lets get high. Kids: Uh, OK. Principal: You kids are expelled. Title: Re: It's always 4:20 somewhere.

One of my favorite authors (Daniel Pinkwater) taught art theory to 5 year olds for a while before becoming a writer. He said later that he'd learned more from those 5 year olds than he had from any of his college professors.

Look at the first grade -- blotches of green and black. Look at the third grade -- camouflage. But the second grade -- your grade -- Matisses, every one. You've made my child a Matisse. Let me study with you. Let me into the second grade! What is your secret? And this is what she said: "Secret? I don't have any secret. I just know when to take their drawings away from them."
