Ohio School Pregnancies

I couldn't resist commenting on this article...

There are 490 female students at Timken High School, and 65 are pregnant, according to a recent report in the Canton Repository.

The article reported that some would say that movies, TV, videogames, lazy parents and lax discipline may all be to blame.

School officials are not sure they what has caused so many pregnancies, but in response to them, the school is launching a three-prong educational program to address pregnancy, prevention and parenting.

They aren't sure what caused so many pregnancies?? I don't know...maybe it was the tooth fairy? My bets are on alien/government tests in creating alien/human hybrids.

Alright then.

It might have something to do with the Health teacher being the men's basketball coach: http://www.ccsdistrict.org:8081/hck/cgi-bin/homepage.cgi?id=hairston_r

I believe this calls for a serious, multi-year, bazillion dollar federal study on the actual cause of the pregnancies...but I shall sacrifice, as a public service to Ohio humanitarianism, and do the study for half that amount.

I think it had something to do with sex, not sure though....

Unless Diff'rent Strokes lied to me, the cause of this fetus boom can be attributed to salmon.

You see when a man and a woman love each other very much the man places his pen...
