English Answer Man Returns!

Yes, the English Answer Man is back. After taking the summer off to enjoy all that Southern California summers have to offer, I'm looking forward to another year of blogging with my young proteges.

What brilliant ideas and interactions await us this year? Will anyone emerge as a master of puns and wit? Will anyone top last year's prolific blogger of the year?


I'll start off the fun with a pun, a pic, and a quote:

In the words of the mysterious Edgar Allan Poe: "Of puns it has been said that those who most dislike them are those who are least able to utter them." 

Best wishes to you all.

  1. Welcome back, I know that some of your young people are very excited to blog among you.
    Though, i don't get the quote by Edgar Allan Poe it showed me away to use a quote in writing. I am ever so excited to not only be in your class this year, but to also blog in your class! I think it's so cool that your doing something fun in a class finally! Hope to have fun in class, tell then, Katelyn.

  2. In this picture i see that the kid is obviously upset about something as if he's hungry. in the background it says the best fishes so if he was mad he could eat. Unless, he was upset that he was forced to take the picture and he didn't want to so can you explain why he was upset?

  3. In this picture you can see this boy is obviously upset about something. It could be that he is hungry, if that's the case he could get some of the "best fish". He could also be upset that he is taking a picture outside in diapers, and he was probably forced to take it

  4. I think this kid is mad because hes dying of starvation.The sign says best fishes ,but it probably means best wishes.My inference is that he has to hunt for fishes in a lake somewhere near by.And that the sign best fishes means i hope that you get a fish out the lake.

  5. This kid is definitely mad because he was forced to take a picture next to the graffiti sign which reads "best fishes." I like this sign because it's the classic pun: It's at a location with water, so the "best fishes" part makes sense. At the same time, it's supposed to be a play on "best wishes."

    And now I've done one of the only things worse than making a cheesy pun--completely overexplained a cheesy pun.
