“If She Weighs as Much as a Duck, She’s Made of Wood. And Therefore…”

07 May

All of you Hilary supporters out there who are clamoring that Florida’s primary votes MUST BE COUNTED!!1!! might want to have a gander at this story first:

Substitute teacher Jim Piculas does a 30-second magic trick where a toothpick disappears then reappears.

But after performing it in front of a classroom at Rushe Middle School in Land ‘O Lakes, Piculas said his job did a disappearing act of its own.

“I get a call the middle of the day from the supervisor of substitute teachers. He says, ‘Jim, we have a huge issue. You can’t take any more assignments. You need to come in right away,’” he said.

When Piculas went in, he learned his little magic trick cast a spell that went much farther than he’d hoped.

“I said, ‘Well Pat, can you explain this to me?’ ‘You’ve been accused of wizardry,’ [he said]. Wizardry?” he asked.

And lest you think that I’m unfairly tarring an entire state on the basis of a single, isolated incident, perhaps you might take a look at this exclusive footage of the official, Florida State Board of Education-approved science curriculum.

    Norman Mailer's Ghost Says:

    Fuck Florida! Let’s hand the state back to Cuba.

    Also, can we accuse Jesus of wizardry? He did that trick with the loaves and fishes.

    Fuckin’ hypocrites.
