    That is a nice looking high school, at least on the outside.

    Another quote I’m completed floored that you haven’t done already.

    A website that used a spellchecker for words like morose, noticeable, amalgamation, solemn, hemorrhagic and vacuum should not laugh at someone’s ignorance of English. Well, at least you did not say perfetti–thanks, Me Blog Write Good–I prefer to spell it as perfidy in a delicious pun.

          Ah.

          Really, though, how often is the phrase “the painted Pagliacci of Perfetti” — or some spelling variation of — ever even been typed on a computer? I wouldn’t expect a lot of people to know what that alliterative description means, let alone know how to spell it.

    I remember pulling that quote off in a high school English class myself. The teacher wasn’t amused at all, though.

      No sense of humor, that one.

    And of course, Homer DID go to England like 13 seasons later. Was it good? Not really.
