You know it will be a good school year when:

...You set up an optional early morning breakfast to discuss an optional reading, expecting four or five kids and one or two parents to come but you end up with 30 kids and a dozen parents.

Or, on a more bemused note that will appeal to the Maximum Leader, I was going over a quiz today and explaining why some choices were not correct; once "distractor" choice was Immanual Kant. I explained that he was a philosopher, not an explorer, and as we moved on, gave the throw away line, "but some people say he was a real pissant who was very rarely stable."

Without missing a beat, one of my girls replied "Heidigger, Heidigger was a boozey beggar who could drink you under the table."

Heh.
