Boy glues himself to bed to avoid school
2008-01-08
A 10-year-old Mexican boy was so determined not to return to school after the Christmas holiday that he glued his hand to his bed.

Sandra Palacios spent nearly two hours on Monday morning trying to free her son Diego's hand with water, oil and nail polish remover before calling the authorities in the northern city of Monterrey, said police chief Jorge Camacho.

"I didn't want to go to school because vacation was so much fun," Reforma newspaper quoted the boy as saying. However, paramedics managed to release him in time for class.

Palacios said her son smothered his right hand in industrial glue.

#3  Back about 40 years ago Big Earnie, Punkinhead Reed's cousin, didn't want to go to school so he took a logging chain and locked it around his neck with a big lock that the key had been lost to. His Daddy and Uncle got a cutting torch, some sheet metal and cut the cahin off. Big Earnie did get some burns but the sheet metal between the chain and his neck kept him from getting really bad burns.
