So here's my story.........I get to work this morning, I have A LOT of work to do to finish the school year, I think, what the heck, I'll just stop in to the boards and check and see how many more posts Helen got overnight............all the sudden I notice.....6970........hmmmmmmmmm.......big pirate coming up.........so I start posting.......not a lot of action.....it's slow but steady.....so I leave the computer on........I check the student assignment books, I think, what can I do to stay on the computer and still keep an eye on the pirate?.........the students are doing their end of the year presentations......I check the boards as they're setting up............all of the sudden we're in the 90s...........I quickly post a few times, then I jump the gun and get 6999..........I'm in trouble........I've missed my chance..........so I take one more shot........I get hit with the 40 SECOND RULE....I'm sweating it out..........14 more seconds..........8 more seconds.........3 MORE SECONDS..... I HAVE NO CHANCE..............

..........7000 pops up! I quickly get off the computer............
