Drop that serial comma, or I'll shoot

from the newswires:

MEDFORD, Ore. -- High school English teacher Shirley Katz insists she needs to take her pistol with her to work because she fears her ex-husband could show up and try to harm her. She said she's also worried about a Columbine-style attack.

A nice, pearl-handled .22 also discourages kids from dangling their modifiers.

I think I'd write (or omit!) anything my teacher wanted me to if she was packin' heat.

Maybe that's what was in my English Lit teacher's pocket...

Ok so now tell us the rest of the story. This is a little too strange, sounds like she's a minority of one.

Did you mean me, Kentuk? If so... that same teacher was the one who swallowed her contact lens in the middle of class. Quite an odd bird. If not... well then you just got a little tidbit of information that won't shape your life one way or another...
