That has to be the dumbest thing I have ever heard. Nope I have heard worse. Remember the kid with the pencil? And I believe that is one of ours. Who else had that color? You know, the next thing we'll hear is that pens and pencils will be outlawed and even teenagers will need to do reports in crayon.
