  1. Really love the top cartoon (11/19/60) by Joe Zeis the most. I knew a kid in the 7th grade that used to do that; aiming for the unpopular teacher. He finally got in trouble for it. One of the girls and I got in bigger trouble though for passing very unflattering notes to each other about the teacher not long after.

    The notes were taken by the teacher and he mailed them to our parents. It’s hard for me to say I’m sorry, but easy to say I could have used an iPhone during math class back in February 1970.
