Pollen Crack

I have a theory about spring fever, and why it attacks so violently among school age children. I think that pollen is to blame. It is the reason my students act so crazy...

I call it my theory of pollen crack... here's how it works. You see, the sinuses and nasal passages and whatnot, they are all pretty closely connected up there... and come spring, with everything in bloom, the pollen just flies everywhere. Kids inhale while they are out there getting all that wonderful fresh air... and the little yellow granules target and invade. As the allergic response is triggered, and things get swollen and congested, perhaps a few good brain cells are destroyed... and the poor babies are helpless to do anything but succumb to the temporary lobotomy. Surely, it is a plausible excuse... it could happen...

So while you are out and about playing and enjoying your weekend, remember to stop and smell the roses... just don't inhale too deeply. :)
