Dad Says School Duct-Taped Son's Pants

The dress code says no pants hanging off of your ass. Assistant Principal Patricia Walters takes that shit seriously. When Spencer Allison wore his baggies down low his teacher sent him to see her and she corrected the problem in impeccable fashion.

"She then proceeded to duct tape his waist, three times around the waist," said [the boy's father Scott] Allison. "Then she sent him back to class, in front of his peers."

He said he worried his son would be mocked by his classmates at the school in the town about 20 miles east of South Bend.

"This outrages me and shocks me," Allison said.

Of course he's going to be mocked. The Assistant Principal taped his pants! That's beautiful! Talk about fodder for mocking. And what are the chances that lil Spence violates that particular section of the dress code again?

Actually, Spencer is pretty lucky. Whenever I see an example of this particular fashion statement I always think of a staple gun, not duct tape.

CD called me over after dinner. I was doing my usual sandblast-the-kitchen-clean-because-it's-Sunday thing and he was doing his usual check-my-fantasy-football thing and Bear was playing Pajama Sam and pretending there wasn't a bath with his name on it running in the bathroom.

CD points to your website.

He says, 'Have you seen this?!? This is great! Staple gun!'

I said, 'You know, that's the guy who wished you Happy Birthday.

CD looks up, bemused, 'He did? Cool. See, I knew this one was cool.'

'Of course he is. How did you find him?'

'From your site.'

I look at him, quizzing. 'You read my site? Even when I don't tell you I've posted?'

CD grins - 'You've got some good links,' he teases me. 'Like this clock guy. Jim.'

Well. There you have it. You applauded power tools and teenager smackdowns. You rock. Obviously.

As if I didn't already know...
