Magic trick gets teacher fired

Quote
Land 'O Lakes, Florida -- The stories in the news about inappropriate relationships between teachers and students have been overwhelming.  There was even a substitute teacher in New Port Richey who got in trouble after investigators say she had a relationship with an underage student.

Well, another Pasco County substitute teacher's job is on the line, but this time it's because of a magic trick.

The charge from the school district — Wizardry!


What next? Will they next start firing teachers for saying the earth revolves around the sun? :wtf:
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

I don't blame the Bible as much as I blame the people who are so willing to be completely intolerant of someone else without even thinking of how fast they're jumping to conclusions. It's irresponsible and ill-fitting for someone with so much responsibility.

There has to be personal tension somewhere... This just doesn't make sense.  What exactly was he teaching?  Why was a magic trick relevant? Was the magic trick to make a point that rubbed someone the wrong way?  Was that person's parents paying a-lot of money/pull?

Many questions come into mind seeing how sad this whole thing appears.

I want someone to quote the statute that firstly defines wizardry, and secondly criminalizes it.

You're better off coming to NS. Calgary is the poor man's village (cause no one can pay for housing), from what I hear.

Bah. Come live at my place. 156ft2 is more than enough to support two people and it would be nice to have someone to pay half the rent.
