I said the F word in school

Apparently you have to watch what you say. Using the F word is unacceptable in some situations. Those who know me understand that at one time I was "fat" but since I apparently am not anymore I am not privileged to use that term. I was reminded that it is a derogatory term. I said, "watch the fat guy" while conducting a challenging portion of music at festival last week during sight reading (straight ones by the way with both bands). I used it all the time when I was horizontally gifted but I guess since the leopard changed his spots,,,, Now that I am not a gravitationally augmented individual I will watch what I say. It is important to be politically correct. I will try not to offend anyone in the future. Terms that are acceptable - Longitudinally gifted Horizontally augmented vertically challenged spatially gifted For your pets- Equine American Canine American Feline American Aquatic American (Gold fish will now be referred to as fish of color) Add to the list if you like and make the world a better place. I'm sure I missed some. kp

I had a student tell me that someone said the "F" word to him. So, I asked him to whisper to me what was said. And he said, "He said Fart." I was relieved as these were 3rd graders. LOL.... LMAO....fish of color....

But there are black birds on my porch and blue jays in the tree. And I heard gold finches flying over. Now what to call them all???? Most of your students and their parents and lots of the folks in competitions have never known you as a fattie so they can't visualize it. And if some of them are amply endowed, they don't

Avian Americans. If they are flying from Canada they are Transitionary Avian North Amaericans. You may add of color. kp

Los avianos americanos done pooped on my porch. I can only hope that the geese of the north don't follow suit. Signed Celtic-American with aspirations
