If someone walks into my classroom (filled with students) wielding a gun, what should I do? I have recieved no training or input in this area, and while I cannot imagine it ever happening at my school, if it ever does happen, I'd like to make sure myself and my children see the event through safely.

When was the first salvo in the "culture war" fired? By which I mean, I don't remember hearing the term all that often growing up, despite a lot of the same issues being debated and discussed. Now, though, it's all over the place. When did the Left/Right, Red/Blue, Catsup/Ketchup divide start being refered to as a War. Bonus points to whoever can tell me who first started using it.

Back in the 1980s on Nickelodeon, a pair of cartoons -
The Little Prince and
Belle and Sebastian - that ran back to back (at least, in memory). I'm not sure either ever went to sindication in any meaningful way, so how am I supposed to get my hands on them?

DebtForgivenessFilter: I'm currently student teaching and expect to get my licensure in May or June, and a job shortly thereafter. Problem is, over my educational career, I've managed to accumulate a not-insubstantial amount in student loans. I'd like to see them lessened to vanish entirely. [+mi]

I do a bit of drinking, and I'm looking for a new toast. "Panties: Not the best thing in the world, but right next to it." is what my friends use, but it's getting a little old. Any suggestions? (Witty and sublime both appreciated)
