Reminds me that my mother was my brother's English teacher at one stage in
High School. He was whispering to someone in class, when she sternly told
him "Christopher, if you don't shut up, I'll give you extra homework." To
which he replied "That's all right ma'am, my mother will help me."
She came back with "I happen to know your mother very well, and I sincerely
doubt that she will." Whole class laughs, Friday afternoon last class
before the weekend tension relieved. Kids happy, teacher happy.
Cheers
