"Spring time in the Delta"

Before you leave the Delta for good there are a few things that you must do.

1. Attend the Crawfish festival in Leland. Admission is two canned goods. The beer is cold and the crawfish is awesome. Plus the music is great.
2. Attend the Catfish festival in Belzoni. I plan on going for the first time this year. I hear it is the same as the Crawfish festival but with Catfish.
3. The Blues Jam at the Holly Ridge Store. The jam happens the day after the Leland Blues Festival. It is free and the crowd is interesting. Last year I saw my first Black Biker Gang.
4. Turkey Hunt if at possible or go skeet shooting.
5. Go to Great River Road State Park in Rosedale to play frisbee golf. Their course is awesome.
6. Tour Antebellum homes in Vicksburg. I plan on going for the year for the first time.

When did it turn sour?

About four weeks ago a couple of boys were rough housing in the bathroom. A coworker demanded that I write a referral, so I did. The four boys were suspended for three days. The four boys have me at the same time for history and computers. When they came back their attitudes were awful, before the referral they were my favorite class. Then one of the four received 5 days suspension the week he came back from the 3 day suspension. He was running around campus like a mad man, I had no choice but to write a referral. The entire attitude of the class worsens. Then two weeks ago the leader of the class, who is one of the original four, received a three day suspension because of a culmination of minor behavioral infractions(demerits), to be honest it was because of the demerits that I turned in on him daily because of his sagging pants. When he came back his sour attitude spread like wildfire and now the class periods that I have with him and his classmates are so sad, because a month ago I looked forward to them coming to my room.

Opening line from channel 6's 10 o'clock broadcast on March 1, 2008.

"Four people are in critical positions after a gun man opens fires on a crowds of people."

Possible the funniest thing that I have ever heard.
