Not Penn State (not even close), but...

I'm somewhat heartened (and surprised) that 75% of the readers of that story say he shouldn't keep his job. Interesting that the BHS administration doesn't have the common sense the pubic does.

It's been a long time comin' this fall. I really should start thinking about the trip to WV and AZ and start planning some Christmas gifty-gifts.

Damn! All my training is for shit! Here is a clever sign, but I can't explain why. Is this an example of irony? And if it's irony, is it dramatic irony? Or situational? Maybe verbal?
