Welcome to my life as an English teacher at a rural community college in the Midwest. Here, I share the moments of hilarity that make my job so rewarding ... is that the word?

the premise

I teach English at a small rural community college. As such, I have accumulated several "interesting" (the word my mother told me I should use instead of another, more appropriate, word) tales over the years of things my students do, say, write, or tell me. People are usually amused on facebook when I post these things, so I thought, What the heck. Blogs have been started about dumber things. I hope you are all sufficiently entertained.

All names will, of course, be left out in order to protect the guilty.
