NEW MATH AND HEAD IMPLOSIONS

Riddle:  What do you get when you add one teacher (who is on break from school) to a nearly-deserted art museum out of state?

Work carefully, now; this is a complicated math problem.  Think of all the possibilities, the statistical anomalies, the factorial probabilities.  

Consider weather (it poured rain for hours until this teacher got inside the museum), time of day (morning, right after the museum opened), and time of school year (Massachusetts state April school break week).  

Multiply the constant (out-of-state visit) with the variable (teacher's incredible bad luck and ill-timing).

1 Massachusetts teacher + 1 quiet Connecticut art museum =

So, what do you get?

Oh, come on.  This is an easy one.  

YOU GET A FRIGGING SCHOOL FIELD TRIP FULL OF THIRD GRADE SOCIAL STUDIES STUDENTS WHO NEED TO BE RIGHT WHERE THE VACATIONING OUT-OF-STATE TEACHER JUST HAPPENS TO BE STANDING.

It's like a disease I can't shake, like student-shingles ... Stingles or Shindents or Stugles or something.  One of these days, it's going to be fatal.  My head will simply implode, and there will be nothing left but an empty shell and a full grade book.

Don't you just love this new math?
