My brother just asked me to officiate at his wedding in Ireland, I am so stoked

Was this in doubt? Seems like a mortal lock kind of thing.

His fiancee's family is very Irish Catholic so I assumed they'd want to go with something more traditional. It was a nice surprise to be asked

Good to know who wears the pants amirite

You better play drums quick you friggin asshol

[Bammer]

Just jammed out on drums to the first three songs from Dirt

Was your clam out during this jamming out?

Flam out

Just before noon, I received an email from the high school principal, the subject line, "Important Information-Please Read."

Apparently, two high schools in our district--one of which my oldest attends--were having a zoom conference in a computer science class. A Computer Science teacher was giving a presentation to the two schools, and during that presentation, an unknown, uninvited person appeared in the conference...a grown man, performing a "sexual act."

I immediately texted my son, and asked him what he knew, and if he'd seen it. He said he saw it, but only because according to the email, "Although the outsider was on screen for a short time, some students used their phones to capture video of the incident and those videos have been shared with other students."

The kids were sharing it via snapchat.

When my son arrived home, I asked him to provide some additional detail. He said it was "a video of a black man masturbating," and that someone allegedly leaked the passcode to the zoom to the person who joined and started playing the video.

While I was talking to my son, my wife text me to tell me her coworker's son, who is a sixth grader, had seen it, and he goes to the same middle school as my twin boys. Naturally, I had to ask them, and they claimed to have no idea. I'm taking their word for it.

Wild.

maybe he got lost?

[dad]

not all who wander are lost, burt.

UPDATE: My wife is with my stepson at one of his practices, and she's been texting me, asking questions.

Wife: I want to know how they got into the zoom.

Me: Same.

Wife: How long was it?

Me: The dong? I don't know.


Guys, I might be in trouble.

[Ello Sailor]

Wife: How long was it?

Me: The dong? I don't know.

Clearly, a bunch of inept people.

Dear Parents/Guardians,

This letter is to make you aware of an unfortunate incident that happened this morning during a live video conference presentation for about 150 [redacted] and [redacted] computer science students by technology leader Vinton Cerf at [redacted].

At the conclusion of Mr. Cerf’s presentation, an outsider somehow joined the video call. Regrettably, what students saw next on the screen was a man engaging in a sexual act. Immediately, the presentation was shut down and the school site, district administrators, the [redacted] technology team, and Mr. Cerf’s team have begun an investigation into how the intruder was able to join the presentation.

Although the outsider was on screen for a short time, some students used their phones to capture video of the incident and those videos have been shared with other students. That is why we have chosen to provide the facts as we know them to all [redacted] and [redacted] parents.

We know that this incident is troubling. It is never our intent for students to view something of this nature. We are deeply sorry that this occurred and are taking every step possible to ensure that something like this does not happen again.

There is a wolf in me . . . fangs pointed for tearing gashes . . . a red tongue for raw meat . . . and the hot lapping of blood—I keep this wolf because the wilderness gave it to me and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fox in me . . . a silver-gray fox . . . I sniff and guess . . . I pick things out of the wind and air . . . I nose in the dark night and take sleepers and eat them and hide the feathers . . . I circle and loop and double-cross.

There is a hog in me . . . a snout and a belly . . . a machinery for eating and grunting . . . a machinery for sleeping satisfied in the sun—I got this too from the wilderness and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fish in me . . . I know I came from salt-blue water-gates . . . I scurried with shoals of herring . . . I blew waterspouts with porpoises . . . before land was . . . before the water went down . . . before Noah . . . before the first chapter of Genesis.

There is a baboon in me . . . clambering-clawed . . . dog-faced . . . yawping a galoot's hunger . . . hairy under the armpits . . . here are the hawk-eyed hankering men . . . here are the blonde and blue-eyed women . . . here they hide curled asleep waiting . . . ready to snarl and kill . . . ready to sing and give milk . . . waiting—I keep the baboon because the wilderness says so.

There is an eagle in me and a mockingbird . . . and the eagle flies among the Rocky Mountains of my dreams and fights among the Sierra crags of what I want . . . and the mockingbird warbles in the early forenoon before the dew is gone, warbles in the underbrush of my Chattanoogas of hope, gushes over the blue Ozark foothills of my wishes—And I got the eagle and the mockingbird from the wilderness.

O, I got a zoo, I got a menagerie, inside my ribs, under my bony head, under my red-valve heart—and I got something else: it is a man-child heart, a woman-child heart: it is a father and mother and lover: it came from God-Knows-Where: it is going to God-Knows-Where—For I am the keeper of the zoo: I say yes and no: I sing and kill and work: I am a pal of the world: I came from the wilderness.
