Who is Cale?

Who is Cale, you may ask? Only our principal's quite articulate son who is certain to remember the instance in exact detail and who is more than capable of providing his mother with a colorful play-by-play account of the Tiger ordeal. Probably right down to the shade of flush in my face and how long it took for my tremors to stop once I was able to turn off the volume.

A Close Call . . .

OMG, the funniest thing happened in tech today! I went to a tech class at Peete last night and they showed us a fantastic website that says "if you can type, you can make a movie". All you do is type your text, choose a cartoon character and the voice you want to speak your words -- and, voila, you have a movie that you wrote!

Well, when I tried to demonstrate it to Cale's class this morning, it was taking forever to download and I accidentally clicked on this demo video about Tiger Woods!!! And the movie began with a lady saying "Tiger Woods, you have a lot of explaining to do". I went into panic mode because I couldn't get it to stop! I was trying to turn the volume off, but did I mention that I was in a panic? I'm yelling "cover your ears, cover your ears" -- I'm throwing myself over the computer like I'm trying to suffocate it because by now it was a living, breathing entity that was about to cost me my job. I may have also been saying "God, don't do this to me" (over and over again). I finally remembered that I could mute the speakers that my projector is attached to and all was well with the world again. But some of the students didn't know what the big deal was. So Cale decided he would explain (of course). My eyes got big as saucers when he began saying "Everyone knows that Tiger Woods was in a bad car wreck and everybody's talking about it and they were probably going to use cuss words to talk about it."

Thank you Cale, God, and maybe even Santa.

Signed,

Your fan forever,
