Standing before her students she sighed in frustration. Great, she thought, The period is almost over and they are absolutely clueless.“

She pulled her key from her pocket and went to her filing cabinet. When the Board had discovered this wonderful little “Secret” she swore she would never use it. But, her patience had ended and the time had come.

She unlocked the cabinet drawer and pulled out the mason jar with the clear fluid. The students still watched her carefully. “Well, Line up. Quickly, we haven’t much time,” she announced.” She had already opened the jar and poured the liquid over the pages of her book.

She pointed and a student stepped up. Hastily, she unfastened the latch that had been implanted at his temple and lifted the top of his skull.

Carefully pulling the grey matter from his head, she sponged the information from the book and placed his brain back inside. She looked into his eyes and tapped him on the forehead.

“Well?” She asked.

“Oh!” He exclaimed, “I get it now!”

    LOL – Sometimes you feel that there is no other way to get it through. Great idea BUT I hope that it never comes to this!!! I don’t know what I was expecting but I laughed out loud when she sponged up the knowledge. LOL
