I wouldn't put it past the school to fire her, because she is in a position of power over children, and there are those who may find her acts morally reprehensible.
Mind you, I think it's stupid, but all it takes is one parent. The school has to cover their own asses, and part of that is preventative damage control. They'd be liable if they let her work after "questionable pictures" arose, and then 2 months later she ended up fucking a student.
That being said, if she wants to prevent this from becoming an issue with the school, all she needs to do is call the police and tell them the exact details of him trying to blackmail her.
The biggest problem that she's going to have with this, however, is proof. It's up to her to prove that he is doing this, because the police aren't going to do it for her.
The biggest POINT to make is: ladies, don't let your man take those pics, unless you don't mind them popping up later... and they WILL pop up later. 8/2/2007 6:38:57 PM |

Or so you think... hopefully they were discarded though, I don't think anyone would want to see that. 8/2/2007 7:58:18 PM |

i took a bunch of pics of me and my GF at the time having sex, and when i went to develop them at the drugstore in cameron village, all my rolls of film came back with double prints except for the sex pics... they were only singles.
i was almost gonna go back and raise hell, but i figured i could possibly get arrested, and didnt want that scrutiny.
i do remember the chicka at the register giving me a funny look when she rang me up.
my GF destroyed the pics later when were breaking up... i know i still have the negatives somewhere, i just dont know where, tho. 8/2/2007 8:19:36 PM |

6^
principle and principal are taught well before teachers' college. in fact, they are taught in middle school. you *did* go to middle school, didn't you?
but it is more than just that: one should [at least] be down with the lingo in one's profession. simple as that. imagine a doctor saying he can't spell ambulance because he didn't major in english, or a ballerina saying she can't spell arabesque, and giving the same reason. that's very weak. 8/2/2007 9:23:55 PM |

are you still busting people's nuts for misspelling shit?
do you have some deep-seated issues regarding your not having won the spelling bee when you were a child, or what? 8/3/2007 2:36:35 AM |

You have done it as well, in the Soap Box, no less.

Unfortunately, we did not have spelling bees in Saudi Arabia. However, when I was in grade 8, a Philippino restaurant here organized a spelling bee Kids from many schools took part, and I won in my age group. I was able to spell nearly all the words correctly in the preliminary rounds (damn easy, not like the American spelling bees), but in the final, I got only 4 out of 10 correct The final had technical and medical words, and words I had never heard. So in a way, the final round was similar to the US spelling bees. I remember only one of the ones I got correct: senescence.
Won the 22 volume World Book Encyclopaedia, which is the next best one to Britannica. Got my nerdy pic in the local newspaper
But I was busting on her for more than just misspelling; I was busting on her for misspelling a word from her profession. So, yeah, THAT is pathetic (if one can't spell words from one's own profession).

You are so right. I have met and worked with tens and tens of school teachers and college lecturers. Some are very very bright, but a lot of them seem to be lacking in common sense, speaking ability, and/or writing ability. And some are just outright freaks and eccentrics!8/3/2007 12:28:04 PM |
