Boo! Your Kid's Off School!

Phone call from my friend today:

"Hey did you hear that our kids are off school until Wednesday?"

"What? What the hell are you talking about?"

"The Hurricane--school's canceled until Wednesday--maybe longer. They're using snow days."

"But the hurricane's in Texas and Louisiana. And it's not snowing."

"I know. But they're worried about the gas, so they figure if the diesel buses don't run, we can save gas."

"You lie."

"Nope."

"You lie."

"Nope."

"Come on."

"I know."

"Oh man."
