The most amazing article I've ever read.*
(Via Roger, who has suggested that people re-write the story in the style of various YA authors. It actually sounds like something that could happen in one of Korman's Son of the Mob books, though the main character/birthday boy himself would have put a stop to it, it would have been his brother who called the stripper, and calling the stripper in the first place (rather than a gorilla-gram) would have been deliberate.)
*Yes, yes. I know I have a habit of saying that. So: It's the most amazing article I've read this week. So far.
Gee, Mom, you shouldn't have...

Nice. That would have done it.

What surprises me about this story is that the stripper herself didn't decide that this was problematic. I understand that she'd been hired to do a job, but you would think that walking into a classroom would start you wondering if just maybe there'd been a mistake?

Yes. Every once in a while I read an article that describes behavior so ridiculous that I wouldn't be surprised if I later discovered it had originated at The Onion.

Oh yeah, my friend goes to that school! I haven't been able to get her to spill his name though...
