By George, I Don't Think He's Got It!

"HEY! Thish ishn't Denny's!"

Last weekend, a cheerleader for THE Ohio State University, George Karadimas, stayed home in Columbus, while the football team went down to Austin, Texas, to play the Longhorns. Even though he didn't go, George was still pretty excited after the Buckeyes won the game. While forty fires were going on in celebration that night, George had his own way of celebrating. He went and had some drinky-drinky, and decided he was sober enough to drive.

The three people he plowed into probably would have disagreed with that. George ended up hitting a fireman and the vice president of Ohio State and her husband. That was smart. All three were okay, happily, and George spent some time getting free room and board in jail. The official charge? Aggravated vehicular assault.

Hey George, I have a suggestion: transfer.

Oh well, no MyShrine comments today, right? Wrong. Of course George has a MyScum profile! Sadly, it can't be viewed by the general public. How we'll survive this, I don't know. However, from what I DID see, George does have a quote for viewing. And the Lord said, "Let there be George." Humble kid, huh?

Another stunning triumph for "outcome based education". Good thing we concentrate on self-esteem as much as the three "R's". Of course, I accidentally on purpose stole his picture. Maybe I should contact one of my old teachers and get a ribbon for it.
