Our friend John Bull, missionary here in St. Pete, posted this –

When I was in the 6th grade I received 8 spankings (maximum allowed by the state of Arkansas) at school for selling fireworks at school.

This year, Melissa’s second grade teacher gave the kids a gift for the Christmas holidays.

It was . . . FIREWORKS!

You can buy them and shoot them virtually anywhere in the city.

I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time.  No spankings here.
