psithinkyousareawesomez

Chronicling the life and times of a somewhat unwilling but dedicated teacher in a program that sends idealistic youth to teach in some very interesting yet needy schools. This is where I recount the absurdities of my teaching days, ponder pedagogy, and interweave images that are visually pleasing and tend to have nothing to do with teaching. Overall, I offer a collection of things I find awesome in both meanings of the word: the awesome that can uplift and give hope with the awesome that inspires me with fear and hopelessness for America's youth. And makes me laugh. A lot.

    Hail To The Thief of the Day: Czech Republic president Václav Klaus helps himself to a ceremonial pen during a press conference in Chile.

    In fairness to President Klaus, it does seem like it was a pretty sweet pen.

    [pk.]

    good lord. klaus is absurd. the cz is far better than this man. i like how the report ends: good night. 

    update: so the czechs have handled this in true czech fashion - with absurdist, lighthearted humor: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/apr/13/czech-president-steals-pen

    “…back in the Czech Republic, the clip has inspired a Facebook campaign in which the public is being asked to contribute to a special collection for him.

    Participants are asked to send pens to Klaus’s office on 2 May “as the president obviously has nothing to write with”, according to the Facebook group.”
