Grex Enigma Item 135: Night School
Entered by remmers on Fri Oct 8 00:28:54 UTC 1993:

   The students were in their seats, awaiting the arrival of their
   instructor.  A hush fell over the room as they all stared in the 
   direction of the setting sun.

   This behavior was most peculiar, as the classroom had no windows.

24 responses total.

Maybe they all had Psionics...

One of my teachers, who has a windowless classroom door, had a picture up
on the door for a while with the caption "if there were a window..."  It 
showed people doing all sorts of strange things in the classroom, and was 
surrounded by what looked like a window frame (this was before he painted
the actual door).  Could there have been a picture of the sun on the wall?

You don't have to see the sun to stare in its direction.

True, You just need a watch an a compass.

You don't need to stare in the sun's direction to see it.

You can always use a mirror.  Best is the kind that will take all the sun's
light and focus it all right on your eye.

Why, so you can fry it out?!

How'd you guess?

#10 of 24 by vidar on Sun Oct 10 01:30:06 1993:

Kind of obvious the way things were going.

Hooked on Psionics?

#12 of 24 by vidar on Mon Nov 22 17:14:32 1993:

Speaking of Psionics, SOMEONE gave me a psionic hug which I wished to
resist.  For some reason, even though I knew the source, I could not
repel the psionic energy.

Don't'cha hate it when that happens.....

#14 of 24 by vidar on Wed Nov 24 17:36:25 1993:

I ought to cut out your heathen Saxon tongue.

#15 of 24 by skeez on Thu Nov 25 00:36:52 1993:

This is getting dull, much like your wits. Please be quiet, Vid.

 At least I'm not haughty like some people I know.  However, I'm 
going to learn Old Norse so that no one will ever know what I'm 
saying while I write curses in the Norse futhark.

#17 of 24 by skeez on Sun Nov 28 03:21:45 1993:

Will anyone care?
No.

#18 of 24 by vidar on Sun Nov 28 15:40:58 1993:

I think people will care if I carve curses on public buildings.
It's illegal, ya' know.

*yawn*

and, on second thought, bring the undertaker with you.

#21 of 24 by jasmine on Fri Dec 17 23:22:03 1993:

ha!

#22 of 24 by vidar on Fri Dec 17 23:26:03 1993:

You obviously do want a physical fight, so why are you being such a wimp.
I'll defeat you psionically if I must.

#23 of 24 by skeez on Sat Dec 18 16:16:01 1993:

I think not.

#24 of 24 by vidar on Sun Dec 19 02:48:31 1993:

I really have no more reason to respond to this.  I have to see this to 
believe it.  As I said in the other item, jasmine and I are working toward
a more mature settlement, and would appreciate it if you kept you haughty
lil' immature comments out!
