How much did the kiddie pool filled with Spaghetti cost?

about 1500 bucks lol

Kids raise $2k for lymphoma, principal lives out life-long fetish fantasy. Everybody is a winnar.

They won't be laughing on Monday when they find out the cafeteria is serving spaghetti.

This guy is lucky that the shark is in the salsa.

On top of spaghetti,
All covered with cheese,
I lost my poor meatball,
When somebody sneezed.

It rolled off the table,
And on to the floor,
And then my poor meatball,
Rolled out of the door.

It rolled in the garden,
And under a bush,
And then my poor meatball,
Was nothing but mush.

The mush was as tasty
As tasty could be,
And then the next summer,
It grew into a tree.

The tree was all covered,
All covered with moss,
And on it grew meatballs,
And tomato sauce.

So if you eat spaghetti,
All covered with cheese,
Hold on to your meatball,
Whenever you sneeze.

This article makes me want a burrito.

Swims?

RAmen...

I read "Pennies for Pasta" as "Penises for Pasta"

/mind's been in the gutter all day

laaaaaaaaaaaaame, if he of swam in sulphuric acid I might have batted an eyebrow.

/twisted

this spaghetti tastes like the principal's grundle

d'iii heard that!!

I love that show, Sergeant Tux.

Between you can't do that on TV, Welcome Freshman and Later Salute your Shorts, I was one happy (albeit stationary) kid.

Ewwww...it feels like cold spaghetti! You guys, it feels like cold spaghetti!

I couldn't get pasta headline..

This principal must be a true believer! All praise to the FSM! May your heart be touched by his noodly appendages. RAMEN!

Do prospective Principals now have a job search advantage if in their former career path included being a whacky moring DJ at an FM zoo crew?

"Stay classy, San Diego..."

All of these "Principal does something crazy if charity goal is reached" stories put me off a bit. It teaches kids to give to charity, but only if they get something out of the deal.

In the short term, the charity gets more money than they would have if the school had just put out a few collection boxes, but in the long term, I fear that the kids won't donate money in the future unless there is some personal incentive.

Then again they are children. By the time they are adults the assumption is that the will have matured a bit and understand how things work. Most 1st graders don't know what lymphoma is (at least in a more detailed sense) or someone who has it (in almost all cases). By the time they are adults they will likely know both, and therefore have some personal incentive to help.

I'm not saying it always works like that; but it did for me at least.

I'll see that and raise you...



Also, it's funny how kids will do just about anything to see one of their adult authority figures humiliated.

Shoot, I'd do that now if it was my boss in the spaghetti.

Since when are leukaemia and lymphoma "specifically diseases of children?" Many, many more adults than children have leukaemia or lymphoma.

Kids fall down and break an arm a lot too, but that doesn't meant that it's a specific injury of children.

At least he didn't bet something crazy like giving them all a foot massage or something

I think this is great. Any stupid stunt that someone can pull to help get people to contribute to a good cause is excellent. Props to this school. And, as mentioned before, the principal gets to live out a lifelong fetish desire. Bonus!

took entirely too long for the "RAmen" post.

lemniscate:

i think she meant simply that leukemia and lymphoma are specific cancers that affect children in large numbers. not that only children get leukemia or lymphoma. why get all pissy about it anyway? it's a good cause...

/had childhood leukemia
//so there

Chef boy-ardee protests against people swimming in spagetti to ensue.....

I wonder what it does to hemmoriods to get that sauce up the old grocery hole?

Doubtful. Motivators keep coming throughout life, too. Just in different forms.

goddamn waste of food if you ask me...

Pastafarians are everwhere these days it seems like.

That's not a "swim", he's barely dunking his butt.

The principal is a woman, right?

Not that that matters, but no one seems to have caught that.

They were too busy analyzing the children's motivation for donating to actually read the article.

Thread winnar!

This reminds me of a conversation I had once with the owner of a strip club (no comment). They told me about a game one thanksgiving called "thanksgiving dinner wrestling." Apparently it was fun at the time, but they shut down for a few weeks afterwards because all the girls got yeast infections. Apparently they used the boxed mashed potatoes.

I bet that principal is learning this lesson the hard way too.

Is this really newsworthy? We get these professionals "sitting in baths of food" every other year during Red Nose Day. All for charity.

...and the win goes to FriarTuck for the Clerks reference. Good show, mate!
