Announcements, Late Friday Morning

[bigdamnprincipal]

It's possible that Zoe sounded more than a little triumphant when the PA system crackled to life in the late morning.

"Attention all students and teachers, this is Principal Washburn. I'm afraid that Principal Madrox has become...temporarily indisposed, and has had to step down from his position. Because of this, there are a few new announcements that need to be made:

1) No more pies shall be delivered to the principal's office. If you must arrive with baked goods, chocolate chip cookies are preferred.

2) All homework is hereby reinforced. If you have homework that was not completed under Principal Madrox's reign, I suggest you finish it before you end up in detention.

3) Anyone caught singing the theme from "Sanford and Son" will be given detention. Anyone caught singing the theme from "Charles in Charge" will be given two weeks of detention.

4) The toilets are still complaining, so be careful. Those of you who use the men's bathroom might want to temporarily invest in air fresheners.

5) I have been informed by reliable sources that despite claims to the contrary, Meerkats are in fact superior to Stickbugs. With this information, I am considering the investigation officially closed.

6) The following students must report for detention tomorrow morning with The Tick:

Katara
Sokka
Samantha Carter
Melaka Fray
Charles Kawalsky
Ray Kowalski
Alex Krycek
Jaye Tyler
Will Vandom
Turtle Wexler
Layla Williams

If you feel your name is on this list in error, you can thank ex-Principal Madrox.

7) The spelling bee is this afternoon, in the auditorium. Don't forget to go and support your fellow students in their educational endeavors.

8) Finally, Jamie Madrox is hereby permanently banned from being within 25 feet of the PA system. Future generations of Madroxes are also banned until further notice.

Those are all of the announcements for this morning. Thank you, and have a safe, pie-free day."

Kawalsky shook his fist at the radio in a 'you darned kids get off my lawn!' way. Not because of the detention. No, he deserved that. But Principal Washburn would rue the day she ever crossed the Stickbug Brotherhood!

"YES! AHAHAHAHA!" Molly cheered when she heard the announcement. "Take that Stickbugs! Meerkats rule!"

Note to self: Learn theme to Charles in Charge. Walk by Principle Washburn's office singing it as much as you can.

Peter stared at the announcements. "No way! Stickbugs forever!"

Zack raised one fist and solemnly intoned. "Preach it, sister."

Pippi wonders if this means she isn't Dean any more and if she needs to return those keys Jamie gave her.

Mental note: "thank" ex-Principal Madrox for detention.

Willow facepalmed and made a mental note to get some cupcakes to bring Peter in whatever detention he was going to earn himself in response to this.

Some blows you would never quite recover from. This would be one of them.
