JL2:, "why?"

8th grader: "a hot girl was going out in the hall, too."

1. LOL....well, that's fair enough! Priorities!

[Cha]

2. Do have a link, Johnny?

Or is this just in fun?

[JohnnyLib2]

4. No link, it happened in my office this morning.

I took it as another sign of the foolishness regarding the speech, as well as a reminder of how many teens really think.

By the way, he said very few others went out and "some of their mothers didn't want them to watch."

7. Thanks!

Glad, very few went out.

And not just in 8th grade, buddy.

5. Tell the laddie he might be able to parlay this into a full scholarship at Regent University...

...or some other top-rank institution of higher 'learning.'

cynically,

9. LOL. POTUS trumped by a 13-year old hottie!

[TK421]

10. That age? This is pretty cool, actually

and he was so honest about it all. If there was a hot girl out in the hall then I would definitely go for that...blame the kid, seriously?

11. LOL. Nice. I was a teenage boy once. I can't judge.
