I was rummaging through my old stuff from school today because I was bored. I found something we used to have at school called a 'Line Book'. You carried it around and wrote your lines down in it, so the naughtier kids could be shamed by three full books tied together with an elastic band and good kids still had theirs in little protective wallets.

Mainly boring 'I will respect the teacher' lines, but a few interesting ones as well:

Portugal is not the furthest planet from the Sun
Malaysia is not a powerful illness (See bottom of post)
I must not steal other people's shoes


Funny now, although the top two make me feel like a retard.

One more cool line in the line book:

French people are not crazy.

I found the book the other day. Yes, it was simply called "The Book" where we wrote down bizarre, memorable or odd words or phrases and who they were accredited to. "RThe Book" stretched to almost three of those execise book. Here's a couple of of the the random phrases I found (I laughed so hard at some of the things written in "The Book"! It was an enjoyable trip down memory lane):


"I've killed Nathan! I've killed Nathan!" - Luke Jarvis. PE class in the gym on 17/02/1992 after Nathan Burge climbed the ropes and was trying to descend when Jarvis started twirling the rope from the bottom - Nathan tried to let go and land on the crash mat but Jarvis, taking his manic "jokes" too far, had removed it. Nathan fell onto the hard gym floor and was immediatley hospitalised for two month with a broken leg and ankle.

"Red meat makes your balls grow bigger." - James Gant, French corridor, 9.57am waiting for French class on 24/07/1994. Gant, trying to impress the girls, displayed a startling lack of knowledge on being impressionable by uttering such a foolish statement. Damned by his own mouth, he could only look on in despair as EVERYONE laughed at him for the rest of the week!


LOL!

Kinda like the classic science question where you put your hand up and say Orgasm, rather than Organism...there can't be too many people who haven't fallen fell to that one!
