The little fellow in the front row with his head cocked hates broccoli and is wondering why he took that seat because he can't sneak out... Cute one, Allan! #553210Allan L. Whitehead May 21, 2004
Thank you so much everybody (Diane, "RON", Rob, and Bonnie) for the great and amusing comments and kind words which are always appreciated, eh…You guys are terrific, as usual - thanx again, Allan

Very cute Allan #553412Allan L. Whitehead May 21, 2004
Thank you everyone (Paul, Carolyn, Paul {again?}, Colleen, Jan, Claudia, Kelly, aand mike) for the great and humorous comments which, as always, are truly appreciated. Odinarily they would be itching for the class to end, but Albus the "Prof" put a spell on them (you can relate to that, right Coll) and they are "spellbound" by every word, eh… (he, eh, eh) - Allan #553450Cathy T. Vettes May 21, 2004
Awesome job here Allan !! How cute they all are.. I especially like the look on the face of the duckling on the bottom left..He seems to be the only one really paying attention.. Perhaps he has intentions of hoggin all the broccoli himself when class lets out..lol #553455Allan L. Whitehead May 21, 2004
Cathy, thank you so much for your humourous comments and very kind words. They all are truly appreciated - Allan #553483Marie Fields May 21, 2004

I hope the lesson was learned here, Maybe tomorrow we can see an image of the teacher. The students seem to be paying you no mind, and all attention is on the teacher. That is a a good thing. Great lighting and detail here Allan. #553606Colette M. Metcalf May 21, 2004
Cute shot, Allan!! #553626Allan L. Whitehead May 21, 2004
Thank you so much everyone (Marie, Sharon, Jill {thanx 'babe', hi again, "RON"}, and Darren for the truly humopurous comments and very kind words.Marie, I believe the killer swan was actually a "dementor" looking for a disguised 'Sirisus'. Darren, tomorrow, we'll have a surprize tribute to a 'very special teacher', eh…
Thanx everyone - your friend, Allan #553639
