But Shott says that he shot Nott. It may be that the shot Shott shot, shot Nott, or it may be possible that the shot Shott shot, shot Shott himself. We think, however, that the shot Shott shot, shot not Shott, but Nott. Anyway it is hard to tell which was shot and which was not.


This is allegedly the message that the Pacific Palisades High School California staff voted unanimously to record on their school telephone answering machine.
This came about because they implemented a policy requiring students and parents, to be responsible for their children's absences and missing homework.
The school and teachers are being sued by parents who want their, children's failing grades changed to passing grades - even though those children were absent 15-30 times during the semester, and did not complete enough school work to pass their classes.The outgoing message:

Hello! You have reached the automated answering service of your school. In order to assist you in connecting to the right staff member, please listen to all the options before making a selection:To lie about why your child is absent -
Press 1To make excuses for why your child did not do his work -
Press 2To complain about what we do -
Press 3To swear at staff members -
Press 4To ask why you didn't get information that was already enclosed in your newsletter and several flyers mailed to you -
Press 5If you want us to raise your child -
Press 6If you want to reach out and touch, slap or hit someone -
Press 7To request another teacher, for the third time this year -
Press 8To complain about bus transportation -
Press 9To complain about school lunches -
Press 0If you realize this is the real world and your child must be Accountable and Responsible for his/her own Behaviour, class work, homework and that it's not the teachers' fault for your child's lack of effort: Hang up and have a nice Day!If you want this in another language, move to a country that speaks it.
