Things My Students Say #2

Overheard at Lunch

D: What's the difference between a bum and a hobo?

J: There is no difference. They're both homeless.

C: No, a hobo moves around. On trains, and stuff. Like, they hop on trains.

D: Then what's a bum?

C: Just regular homeless. No trains.

Period Six Diversion

J: Hey, Ms. D, did you know that you find $10 worth of pennies in your life, but nobody ever picks them up?

Me: No, I didn't know that.

J: Yeah. Crazy, right? Wait, did I say dimes?

Me: No, pennies.

J: Oh, yeah. Pennies. Oh look, a dime on the floor!




Truly amazing.
