 Hi, everybody. I forgot to tell you the story of how my dad once dropped us off in a really bad part of Chicago and made us walk through that place while he parked the car.
We were going to see the Chinese New Year Parade and it was fun because this one guy had to take a pee on a telephone pole and I was pretty sure it was not part of the parade. Anyway my Dad did find a parking spot that was only seven blocks away and we all watched the parade and everyone went home happy and didn't say a word in the car for the entire trip home. My dad wins again! Next time I will tell you how my Dad's friend showed up drunk at our house and fell down in some grass. I promise you it's funnier than it sounds. (ed. note: This is our first official reprinting of an article from The Olinoy Reporter since the readers here successfully boosted their Kickstarter program over the line and kept this local paper from Olinoy, Illinois in business. Read the story here. Thanks again, everybody, and enjoy!) Reprinted from The Olinoy Reporter's centennial issue, May 1, 2013  2 Clown Cars suffered a slight fender bender this weekend, 18 were injured.
The accident occurred in the parking lot of the Super "G" Deals store. Both cars were from NCCC, The National Community Clown College in Olinoy, Illinois. The two groups were trying to beat the record for most clowns in a car when the parking brake broke on one brightly painted VW Bug and it rolled into the other. Neither group broke the record, but there were 10 broken arms, 6 broken legs, two twisted ankles and and a vast number of bruised egos. Apparently there simply weren't enough seat belts to go around. Grumpo the Clown said it best when he simply held up a sign that read "Boo."  THE LEARNING CURVE!
For today's student who hasn't quite made the grade. It isn't a traditional school. We're renting space in a strip mall on a frontage road. We're right between a Payday Loans store and The Big Empty Place. You'll know your child has arrived when they hit The Learning Curve. Sign currently being put up if payday loan goes through. |
