Dang Pesky Varmint!

According to Merriam-Webster's Online Dictionary the definition of Varmint is:

Main Entry: var·mint
Pronunciation:\ˈvär-mənt\
Function:noun
Etymology: alteration of vermin
Date: circa 1539
1: an animal considered a pest ; specifically : one classed as vermin and unprotected by game law
2: a contemptible person : rascal ; broadly : person , fellow


It seems that we still have a varmint problem at the school. But do not fret. Please refer back the posting of March 24. What worked on unwanted pests can and will work on unwanted varmints. But an addendum. Starting April 9, there is no school until the 20th. This leaves one enough time to travel to Albany and to let the powers that be know what is going on in our school in regards to this varmint.

Please be careful. This particular type of varmint is tricky. It uses subturfuge to get what it wants, especially when it feels cornered. Be careful when approaching it in its burrow. This might lead to mind altering rays it shoots out from its eyes. Witness what it has done to The Chosen One and The Body. Both are now nothing but inane drones serving their master, I mean the varmint.

But most importantly the varmint hates having the light shined on it. When in the spotlight the varmint will scurry away and avoid responsibility. The more light that is shined on it, the weaker the varmint will soon become a paper varmint and soon be gone never to be spoken of again.
