The Buckets by Greg Cravens for May 07, 2014

I think I’ve put this in the strip before- When someone talks about ‘Their’ school, ask who the coach is. You usually get an instant answer- they don’t even say which sport, just tell you The Coach. Ask who the head of the Physics department is, and you get some blank stares. You can then apologize and say that was a silly question, then say, “I meant the head of the English department.” Pause. “Any teacher at all?” “Anybody?” “Bueler?” … I’m not sure we’re putting the right emphases on our various higher educational programs. (Hey, look, I used the plural of ‘emphasis’!)
