Okay! Here's a challenge!
Maximize this list of dirty deeds played on various teachers, especially poor Mr. Creel (We were MEAN to that man!!!) I remember him well...and still carry a bit of guilt regarding my participation in the following:
1. Creel
Under the cover of darkness, I think on a Halloween night, a huge firecracker exploded on the sidewalk at his residence. (It was about the equivalent of a stick of dynamite!) He related the next school day that it shook him out of his bed. Poor man!
2 Creel
On film day, the projector mysteriously slid backwards far enough to jam the take-up reel on the front of the table and the whole film ended up in a pile in the floor...a pile through which we bad boys all walked on the way out of class. Poor man!
3 Cason
On signal, the entire class would start lowering their voices to a whisper. She would reach into her blouse and adjust her hearing aid volume. Then we talked very loud and watched her flinch! Oh, we were mean!
4 Creel
If I recall correctly, someone ordered a large quantity of foodstuffs to be delivered to his home...C.O.D.! Poor man!
5 General
Walter Weathers was good at (and taught us the art of) sending soft pats of butter straight up to the ceiling in the cafeteria...using a folded napkin as a launch mechanism. I don't know how many grease spots we inflicted on the ceiling tiles.
I just KNOW that some of you can add to this list! Harold maybe?
