Good idea, gone bad!

I just got this email and nearly pissed my pants laughing...

This is one of those classic examples of the unpredictable nature of
teaching. Read the story before you scroll down to the picture. A class of elementary students started a class project to make a planter
to take home and wanted to have a plant in it that was easy to care for.
It was decided to use cactus plants. The students were given greenware pottery of a clown and they painted them with glaze and had them professionally fired at a class outing so they could see the process. It
was great fun. They planted the cactus seeds in the finished planters and
they grew nicely but, unfortunately, the students were not allowed to take
them home. Once you scroll down, you'll understand why. The cactus plants were removed and a small ivy replaced them and the children were then allowed to take them home. The teacher said cactus seemed like a good idea at the time...

C'mon Elk, can't believe you don't have a comment on this one! Look at the expression on the clowns face. It looks like he's been to the "free" clinic and got some horrible news. :o

What's the difference between a cactus and a low-rider?

Hey, he was the kid who stood up whilst having a "special moment". Can I help it if the image was burned into my mind?

Hailing from a time before dinosaurs walked the Earth, VintageDirt crawled up out of the ooze and emitted the following:

[zio]
