Weird News articles found on the web.


Calif. students get X-rated version of class DVD

ELK GROVE, Calif. (AP) - A Northern California elementary school teacher sent her students home for the summer with a video of class memories, only the DVD included six seconds of her having sex on a couch.

Officials at the Elk Grove Unified School District asked families of the teacher's 24 students to get rid of the DVD after the unintended clip was found spliced in a scene where children were sharing stories in class.

"Just destroy them," said spokeswoman Torrey Johnson.

Johnson said the teacher, whose name isn't being released, sent the DVD home with her students from Isabelle Jackson Elementary on the last day of class Friday. She learned of the mistake after a parent called her. She then called all the parents to ask them to destroy the DVD.

The school district, located just south of Sacramento, initially sent a letter home to parents asking them to return the DVDs, but then asked parents to simply destroy them.

Sana, that's one of my biggest gripes. The fact that these streets in this country are littered with children who need homes and are getting set aside all in the name of helping another country just flat out pisses me off. Rather like all the celebraties who get their jollies releasing press statements about what great fucking humanitarians they are pulling some kid out of a foreign country and dazzling him with  designer clothes and toys while the kids in THIS country who need a home would be happy with a hug every night and a mcdonalds cheese burger. Oh, sorry, this is one of those conversations that just sets my ass on fire nam myo ho renge kyo nam myo ho renge kyo nam myo ho renge kyo ....

Back to the original subject, ok, if you're going to adopt a child from a foreign land which has cleared been fucked up for HOW long? How the hell do you expect to bring a kid into your home, one who speaks no english and who apparently was abused in his home country and then expect him to behave according to your standards? How does one turn around and say, 'Ok, I dont like this one anymore,next!" You just don't DO that to a human being. You just dont do that to children.

slinking off my soap box now ...

you know what pisses me off more? the fact that american people suddenly 'found' money in their pockets to donate hundreds and thousands to Haitian people when the gas prices are fucked up, old people die in their homes because they cannot afford some crazy ass electricity bills, and the mere fact that FOOD is always getting expensive.

While basic living is hard to afford in America, why are people happily sending out money instead of helping a next door neighbor or a fellow citizen?! How about that? Some weird rationality huh!

Would it have been worth while,
To have bitten off the matter with a smile,
To have squeezed the universe into a ball
To roll it toward some overwhelming question
To say: "I am Lazarus, come from the dead,
Come back to tell you all, I shall tell you all"

What a dick.

Penis envy is rife the in the Catholic Church. I imagine they all have cold, blue penises, untouched by human hands.

 Grin They certainly do keep it up! - in private of course -

I'm sure the pope will not even notice of the roundabout anyway, he needs a giant obelisk to be aroused like the one they have in Saint Peter's. And besides, I'm just glad that Malta's being humiliated internationally.

What a lovely story of two people putting their money where their mouths are and doing it for all the right reasons. Thanks for posting this.

Some of us think child trafficking is a positive thing for the free trade economy, others seem to think it's unacceptable.
