who wants to go halfsies on a high school?

in this article, the times details how you and i could buy a closed school in one of philly's up-and-coming neighborhoods. here are all the schools for sale. I think we should make it into a bar/hotel/movie theatre like this one in portland. it's time to get serious, you all.

my mom is from germantown. i say we get this one.

this makes me feel better

this "twerk team" used their high school's equipment to produce this wonderful "twerk video", and they got suspended for it!

one of them tweeted the following, which is the best thing i've seen aaaaaaaalllllllDAY:

"Suspended for twerking. What do I do? Twerk. At the beach. I twerk at the beach."

did you ever see Undefeated, the Oscar winning documentary about the Manassas HS football team in Memphis?

it is streaming on netflix and it is a real tear jerker. i watched the whole thing and mike watched the last half this weekend. i think he liked it even though it has sports.

White Station High forfeits football opener because of alleged hazing incident

UPDATE: from the commercial appeal comments section, so please take with a grain of salt

"Someone got beat up, supposedly to make the first game lucky to help them win. The choice was made that it had to be a small, white freshman on the team. The freshman told the principal, and the entire football team was called to a meeting. Five students were suspended. About an hour after they were called, over the intercom, a lecture was given about hazing and how the game would be canceled. People, angry about the cancelation, had a huge riot after school today. Multiple people were hurt, and many police cars were at the scene."

what's for snack: after-school edition

one percent and animal crackers (not pictured: another half-pint)

WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE

Pelayo Diaz, blogger from Spain 
Are you a big fan of Louis Vuitton?
Yeah. I’ve got good memories.
What do you mean? 
Like, for example, when I didn’t want to finish high school, my mom told me if I finished high school I could get whatever I wanted. And I said, okay, if I finish high school I want a Louis Vuitton suitcase. And she got it for me, and then I moved away.
