Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!

Here is my example with WFTD:

 

The sybaritic Kennedys, are back in the news. I have to admit to enjoying a bit of gossip now and again, so while others will greet this story with ennui and disinterest, i enjoy reading about the antics of this bizarre configuration of people. i always had a soft spot for John-John, and the wifey sounds like a complete NIGHTMARE. i am cringing at the pedicure story!

[xsmommy]

I am subbing again to give Vast a break. c'mon in.

[xsmommy]

class in session.

[xsmommy]

i am subbing, class in session.

[TruthShallSetYouFree]

Hi, teach!

[Conspiracy Guy]

[Conspiracy Guy]

Being only half sybarite, Flurry can only wonder when the luxury will arrive.

[xsmommy]

subbing again, come to class.

[xsmommy]

morning truthy!! how be you?

[xsmommy]

being the consummate hostess, i am scouring previous WFTD threads to see if i have forgotten to call anyone's name on the roll. i don't want to have people whinging about not being notified of class!

[habs4ever]

Sybarites and Kennedy's don't mix...a better word is degenerate!

[xsmommy]

oh there are better words indeed to describe them, but i don't want to be banned for using them!! ; )

[xsmommy]

don't let me forget you! you get a special invitation!

[xsmommy]

grimmy, are you vacationing? i didn't get a note in advance of this, it is an unexcused absence as far as i am concerned and the gradebook will reflect that....

[CholeraJoe]

Whazzup?

[TruthShallSetYouFree]

The Kennedys, so sybaritic
Faced gonorrhea (some were syphlitic)
It never got boring
The drinking, the whoring
Gomorrahing, and quite Sodomitic

[xsmommy]

More Kennedy marital woes in the news today.

[xsmommy]

[camle]

are you being grouchy this morning, or are you overwhelmed with new authority?
