Goats removed from Simsbury High School roof overhang
WFSB ^

An unusual surprise was waiting on top of a roof overhang at Simsbury High School on Wednesday morning.

Simsbury High School officials said four goats were found on the roof overhang of the facility by a custodian who arrived at 5:15 a.m. to begin the day.

The goats were all safely removed from the top of the 10-foot overhang and classes were held at the school as normal.

It's unknown how the pygmy goats got onto the overhang in the first place, but Simsbury police said they believed the incident could have been the result of a senior prank.

No, I trust you can look out for yourself. I’m not your nanny.

(But who am I kidding?)

Isn’t it haram for a Muslim wife to be seen without a full face covering?

WINTHROP, Wash.—Students arrived at school Wednesday at Liberty Bell High School in Winthrop to discover a truck welded around a column.

School officials said the Class of 2012 cut the Toyota truck in half, brought both pieces to their stomping grounds, and welded it back together as senior prank.

School officials said a welding class was just added to their high school curriculum this year. Administrators said the truck would be removed Thursday by the students.

BWAHAHAHAHA!! My sides are hurting from laughing! Excellent. Seriously.. the best prank I’ve seen thus far. Plus, I love how the article mentioned that welding had been added as a class that year (they obviously learned a great deal!) and yes... the students would be removing it. Thanks, 21twelve! You gave me a huge laugh!! Hugs, Mom

It looks like the kids put some plywood around the column to protect it as well. Reasonable (and clever!) kids and a reasonable school administration. Of course - Winthrop is a rural farming area and conservative.
