Ah, Florida. My home for nearly a decade. My husband's home for his first 30 years. I have been endlessly amused by its wackiness and backwards mentality. From police dumping parapalygics out of wheelchairs because they would not stand up on command to the Hogan family, there is so much to enjoy. The lastest story coming out of Pasco County, Florida (near our old stomping grounds of Tampa) has to do with a teacher being fired for wizardry.
He performed a magic trick involving a toothpick taped behind his thumb. The school board is saying this magic trick was just one of many errors made by this teacher, including allowing students to use computers when another teacher forbade it. Florida is an "at will" state and thus employees can be fired for pretty much anything.
