I had a Spanish teacher that was 22, blonde and hot during the age of the mini skirt. I had to walk home which was about five miles away and she'd pick me up and take me home often. I could only wish.

It appears she’s incapable of not smiling in front of a camera.

She is smiling because she is an idiot

She has a Bachelors of Science in Biology. Just what is your educational background?

[drewh]

innocent and not guilty are not always the same thing!

I believe most jurisdictions have laws protecting those under (no pun intended) an authority figure, if not student-teacher relations outright.

Well, I have a Masters in Female Anatomy and would gladly take a loooooong week-end with her to compare notes, talk food, chit-chat, lick envelopes & whatever else popped up.

Just Sayin’ !

Snoot ;o)

Indeed.

What are the serious charges? Assault and battery with a deadly vagina?

Educated idiots are the worst kind of idiots.

For starters I did not fiddle around with a teen aged boy

Education is BS in physics and electro optics....now show me yours

Oh and mine was when a college education meant something

She turned herself in.

My guess would be it was her attorney that told her to give that gleaming smile in the mug shot to avoid looking guilty.

And she had the brains to marry a guy that could afford her looking at the backgrounds of her pictures.

She says she didn't either. Her word against that of a teenage boy. Somehow I find an adult more believable.

Education is BS in physics and electro optics

Right...

Yup. It's a PR thing. I believe Lindsay Lohan was the first to do the smiling mugshot bit - or at least the first famous person to do it. I could be wrong, tho.

Carpet???

I’m thinking hard wood floors or maybe a small area rug at most.

I think it's criminal lawyer advice that she got before turning herself in: Smile, keep your mouth shut and wait for them to process your bail.

Not even close. Pablo Escobar made this famous and he did it back in 1977.

>>>Tom Delay looked spaced out, detached from reality and deep in denial, just like she does<<<

Well, Tom was Innocent, so I guess she must be Innocent too.
