I have no idea what your post means, do you or anyone else perhaps?

I think it is a joke with a jeopardy theme. I really have no clue though.

that is correct!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeopardy

"During the game, three competing contestants select clues from a game board, up to 61 clues per game, each clue in the form of an answer to which they must supply correct responses, each response in the form of a question. The conceit of "questioning answers" is original to Jeopardy! and, along with its theme music, remains a distinctive element of the show."

In some schools, you're not allowed to improvise. You have to have your lesson plans approved in advance and if someone in authority walks in, you'd better be teaching exactly what was approved.

and if the animal had not been delivered (as I mentioned)? Why on earth do people only half read a post, then proceed to only half answer it?

I did read the entire post. He could have gotten in trouble for improvising, even if the animal had not been delivered. Principals are not logical people. If his lesson plan said "skin a raccoon" and it was signed off on, then by golly he'd better find one to skin, whether that means going outside and catching one or dispatching one with a staple gun.

Some folks are neither slow nor fast, they are just half fast.

They need one that can spell 'obedient' too.

Actually, that's what they want. Makes you wonder what all the fuss is about getting degrees and constantly having to take courses when actual thinking is so frowned upon.

I often wonder what motivates people to pull others up on what is obviously a typo, my belief is that they are the sort of person who has to express this type of pettiness online because they are far too timid to do it face to face in real life. For your information as well as the job being far too menial to attract me, I would be grossly over qualified and they obviously could not afford me, could you say the same?

Edit:
Maybe I am being harsh but internet twerps tend to annoy me, I know you are considerably more timid than I am, because I read your post about the chess hustlers in SF, I know after a short while I would have just decked him, violence doesn’t solve all problems and should be a last recourse but people like that need to learn that they have to watch it because sooner or later they will try it on with the wrong person.
