Tomorrow's Young Guns


The St. Monica's Catholic High school mid-term progress reports are here. I know this is not much cause for excitement at your house but it's kind of a big deal around mine.

Looking over a plethora of B+'s and A-'s it's become apparent that my girls have the same scholastic gene for underachievement that I did.

If it weren't for their cynicism and their propensity to laugh at everything, they probably could be great students. Maybe I should just be thankful that they're not considerably-less-than-great students. Like the geometry student who handed in the test pictured above.

While that student did not fully grasp the Pythagorean Theory, he or she gets points in my book for penmanship and sarcasm. And might want to consider a future as an Advertising Copywriter. As should this bright young pupil...


Here's another Copywriter in the making...



This student certainly has a flair, albeit misguided, with words...


And this could be the next Neil French...

Of course not every student who cracks wise to a teacher is destined to become the world's next Steve Hayden. Some are less gifted with words and more inclined to visuals. They too show potential for a career in advertising, like this failed Physicist but promising young Art Director...


By the way if you are fan of these outrageous test answers, you can find a few hours of quality laughter right here.
