| Desk Jockeyed (Teacher Imparts Unforgettable Lesson) |
| 2007-04-08 |
| (Via Snopes) High school Social Studies/Military History teacher Martha Cochren removed the desks from her class before the start of the first day of school and had them returned at the end of the day by veterans to show her students who had actually earned those desks for them. (Snopes site apparently doesn't allow copying - sorry. Follow the link and read the whole thing, certified by Snopes as TRUE.) |

| #4 #3 - According to the article, the teacher had the blessing of the principal. But you're right about the Commie Cities of the West.™ |

| #3 I would like to see this repeated in, say Seattle or San Francisco. The teacher involved would be out so fast that if you were watching, you'd catch pneumonia from the wind blast created by his/her exit. |
