^^It's kind've hard though. This is the first BIG thing that hit our town. Our town is small and nothing normally happens so it is sorta of hard.

13 bomb threats? They weren't used as humorous jokes right? Did the school staff do anything about it? Weeeell. I don't want to get into detail, but a small situation quickly got out of hand.<=( Okay, got it, I don't need to know anymore.

No it wasn't a joke, the staff took it seriously. One time we even got an early dissmissal and another time the high schoolers had to come to our school.>< All the other times, the police came the next day and the high schoolers had to keep their backpacks home, clean out their lockers, and walk through metal detectors. Actually, its died down a bit, we havent heard of one since...early April? Late March? Something like that. Before it was at least every month or so. We just got used to it so much. Wat's funny about it is that the itermidiate school has had 3, the two elementary schools had 2 and my school only has had 1. We're good kids.=)

Why did the high schoolers come to your school? Did the threat come from where they were? You guys really know how to stay out of trouble. But, seriously, 13 bomb threats! That's a very unlucky number. I never had one.

Reading?
If you did not tell me about how dangerous the city would be, then I would have thought it would be the most literate city in America.

Wow, I never heard the Reding was so dangerous... and I'm only in Madison Twnsh[. And I thought my school... with the mediocre special-ed that had to have been fought for, was bad.

Whenever theres a murder: Reading, suicide: Reading, someone getting shot: Reading, stabbing: reading, and something really bad happened a few days ago. There was this fugitive that police were chasing all around the country and he finally got caught after killing an officer in where? Reading. -does the sign of the cross- I pray for that officers family, his birthday was 3 days away, he was gonna be 40. <=(
