“Please go KILL these people.”
That was part of a note Catskill Superintendent of Schools Kathleen Farrell wanted to send to John Wallabay, director of facilities for the school district.
Yes, the SUPERINTENDENT.
It gets better: Out of frustration and in haste, she mass e-mailed the note. And a number of teachers got it.
The Freeman had the whole enchilada today.
I wonder what would had happened if that note had been sent by a student.
Oh, wait! I actually do know what would have happend to a student. And you do, too.
Sad times, indeed.
Lesson here is, of course, don’t write angry e-mails in haste. It’s like drinking and dialing, and it leaves a record.

We all have said something inappropriate without meaning it (maybe you haven’t, but I’m proyecting here).
I’m pretty bad myself (I even make machine-gun sounds). But a certain smile on my face lets people know I’m OK (though some might think I’m crazy). Thankfully, I do such things where people know me well. So even those who think I’m crazy know at least that I’m safe.
And with sound effects.
