Et Tu Brute? Jesus said that.
Many of you have already heard the story about the lovely contestant on Survivor who attributed Ceasar's (and Shakespeare's) words to Christ. I would like to contribute another installment of the " Shakespeare Really Said That" saga. Riding home on the Hiawatha Lightrail, I overheard a conversation between two preteen boys:
Boy 1: " Man, school sucks. I'm not doing my homework."
Boy 2: "Yea right. Your parents will make you do it."
Boy 1: " No, I can do what ever I want. The world is my oyster."
(This is where I suddenly went from amused to intrigued).
Boy 2: " Where did you hear that?"
Wait for it.........
Boy 1: " Shows what you know. Scarface said that, man."
Ah, youth!

I once heard a student say, "It's just another case of too many cheeses, not enough Indians."
I don't have a funny comment from kids to share. I just wanted to let you know that I miss you, and that I wish I was a pre-teen boy traveling on the Hiawatha Lightrail so I could be near you.
Well, I guess I wouldn't have to be a pre-teen boy, would I? Just someone on the Hiawatha Lightrail. I guess I could even be myself.
What the heck is the Hiawatha Lightrail, anyway? And is Hiawatha one of the Indians for whom there are too many cheeses?
