MJ's Zero to 5000 in No Time Flat!

[dandaman]

Ooooh.. Carnivals are fun! We used to have one every year when I was in elementary school. :wave: Such fond memories...

Ah, yes, carnivals... the temporary amusement parks with questionable rides and even more questionable ride ops. :lookaroun

Jim sub???? I didn't know he was a teach Nana.....

Just think, each sad day of school means one less day till you see us!!!!

 

[talkinghands]

No rides for this carnival. Games and food. These are elementary kids. It is a way to get them to come the last day since it was supposed to be a teacher work day but we lost it (actually 2) due to Katrina and Wilma.

Wouldn't you think an advertising company would, at the very least, inform you of goings-on?

You'd think so, especially seeing how half have degrees in mass communications. :lol:

Bonny- I'm a writer/producer for an Advertising company. Furniture and mattresses mostly.

I'll most likely still have the ears for us to work on when you get here Lisa...along with pin boards....

You don't have to have a teaching certificate to sub. Just an AA or BA and he has an MBA. He is taking a training class this weekend. It is a job that meshes with his other jobs.

Yep, one day less until I see you:sohappy: :sohappy: :sohappy: :sohappy:

Newfound? Heh. It's been around for a looooong time. :lookaroun

Newfound? Heh. It's been around for a looooong time. :lookaroun

I suppose it has. Our teachers used it all the time, but they disguised them as "Food Days". :lookaroun
