DES MOINES, Iowa — Pig fetuses believed stolen from a biology lab at a Des Moines high school were found impaled on car antennas at a rival school's parking lot in West Des Moines.

The incident was discovered on Tuesday at Dowling Catholic High School.

The pig fetuses were believed stolen from Roosevelt High School. They were on about 15 cars, along with a pound of biology-class crawfish that were smeared on hoods and windshields.

"You could smell the formaldehyde from a block away," Dowling Assistant Principal Ron Meyers said.

Bozeman Sr High School, Bozeman, MT senior prank. Pig feces and some kind of rotten cheese in the heating ducts in the middle of winter. Stunk for the rest of the year.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. If you want on/off this list, please freepmail me. The main Homeschool Ping List by DaveLoneRanger handles the homeschool-specific articles. This is becoming a fairly high volume list.

My 'geez, what a wuss' meter just went off.

Isn't formaldahyde a haz-mat nowadays? The frogs & animal parts my school gets come from a place that uses other preservatives that don't smell that much, or that badly. Somebody's stretchin the truth....

What was horrible about it was that we had to open the windows in the middle of the winter because the smell was so strong. Bozeman winters in the 80s where brutal.

If so, get rid of your shampoo, most of them have formaldahyde as an ingredient.

What’s the problem? They are just blobs of cellular material. Not like they had any relation to an actual pig.

What a bunch of pikers.

My Biology 11 class took ALL the fetal pig intestines from our dissection trays and used them as “Christmas Garland” all around the biology classroom while Mr. Clark was off with the Principal for most of the class.

He didn’t even bat an eye when he walked in, and the “decorations” stayed up all day, but he somehow singled myself and my lab partner out to remove said ornaments before the Christmas break.

He retired the next year, and during his farewell address at our Grad ceremony, our little foible was mentioned as “an original”.

I don’t know how true that is, but at the time I couldn’t stop grinning like the Cheshire cat.

I won’t belabour you with stories of the after-grad, except to mention that the party made the front page of the local paper 3 days running...

If it was in a madrasah, the headline wouldn’t be “school prank,” it would be “ISLAMOPHOBIC HATE CRIME!!”
