CSI, Teddy-style
What would you do if you arrived at a class you'd been attending and found police tape over the door of the classroom? When that happened to a class of first graders in the Midwest they got right to work to solve the crime.

Blogger Stoops To New Low With Pebble Beach Coverage
Unless you live in this area you don't think much about it. But those of us who inhabit the coastal area of Central California know it well. The trailers and equipment descend on Pebble Beach, just south of us. The pro golfers wander in with the celebrity players and the tourists wander in to catch glimpses of any or all of them. Volunteers are in abundance to keep everyone happy and under control. Most of us avoid our favorite restaurants until they all go home. And most of them do go home, eventually. But this year, something has changed. We seem to have acquired a new presence at the AT&T Pro-Am. He's a scruffy-looking fellow and he claims to have some sort of edge over the others who cover this annual event. He seems to have some grudge against the film industry and refers to casting directors as being sadistic sorts. He also had the audacity to call actor Bill Murray a nutball. This guy doesn't sound very together himself, with his putdowns and bad attitude. And who runs around in a fur coat in California? You might see him if you come to Pebble Beach, though I doubt it. He's covering the action in stealth mode. And when he gets the dirt on the whole thing, you can read about it on his very own blog.
