in my family's annual gift exchange/grinch game, i ended up with a ten pound bar of dark chocolate. seriously. when trying to come up with a use for said immense candy bar, i thought: inappropriately behaved students? whack with chocolate! who is going to believe that the teacher hit the student with 10 pounds of chocolate? a ludacris idea of course, but highly entertaining in theory. keep in mind, i read that short story where the wife serves the leg of lamb she used to murder her cop husband to her dead husband's partner at a formative age and now view all large, heavy food items as possible murder weapons. not that i wish to murder my students. just to prevent certain behaviors...
