Brian: for being in such a nice area, my school did have problems with drugs. We had a short epidemic with tar herion that killed 16 kids over two years in just our city (Plano, TX). CNN and MTV came to the high schools to interview kids and all. That was a really sad time, but the situation is much much better now. |

Word for word, the kid did the right thing. |

Evan, so how many kids decided to follow your lead into drug trafficing when they graduated?  |

Good one Tom. I have a Ferrari/school story as well. Just before my freshman college year started I took a friends F355 to my old high school to say goodbye to some teachers. I parked it in front of the main building right as lunch started, so every kid there saw me in the car. Jaws dropped in disbelief, and some of them knew me from the year before. I told them I became a drug czar, joking of course. Long story short, I got a very concerned questioning from my parents about a week later. |

Thought I'd share a funny story. This past Saturday night my theater students performed a Mystery Dinner Theater for a Parents Weekend dinner. Of course, the victim had to be their professor. Anyway, prior to the show beginning I went into what I thought was an empty lounge to load the stage pistol. A very real looking but utterly fake handgun. I looked up to see another student, not one of mine, staring at me wide eyed. I said hello, turned and left. A few minutes later two security officers (they knew what was happening) came to me to say that the student who had seen me load the gun came running to them saying "Professor Saupe's gone postal, someone must have touched his Ferrari!" I feel so much safer having the car on campus now. |
