Wow! My city is filled with kids with a very sick sense of humor! Around this time last year, there was a senior who wrote on the walls of a bathroom that he was gonna set off a bomb at school. The next day, there was a 33% attendance. They caught the kid, and I believe they puthim in jail or something :\

Then, a month ago, at MY school, some 6th grader used a pay phone to call the police, saying they saw another kid with a gun. It was during a wresting match. The match was called off, and of course it was fake.

And now, all kids at four schools, mine included, get an extra day or spring break. Why? Because of a threat. They haven't said what it was, but there's no school. And foronce, I was looking forward to school. What you know what the worst part is? We're going to have to make this up in the summer because we've used all of our snow days.

Doany of you have threats like this happen?
