A trio of boys is always up to mischief at school.
Mrs. Hall is the very strict, no nonsense, typing teacher up on the second floor. She runs her classroom like a well-run military operation. She adores reading about General George S. Patton.
The typing classroom consists of the latest manual typewriter models. (Sorry lad, no electric ones yet.)
The delinquent boys intend to surprise and shock Mrs. Hall this morning. After all, there is nothing wrong with conducting a small science experiment from her classroom.
Have you ever seen a typewriter fly?
The boys sneak an old typewriter into Mrs. Hall’s classroom before the school day begins.
With a lookout posted near the classroom door, the other two boys open a window and place the typewriter on the ledge.
Just as Mrs. Hall walks into the room, her ever-alert eyes see the boys at the open window with the typewriter.
“Hey Mrs. Hall! Have you ever seen a typewriter fly?”
The typewriter is launched from the window ledge, precisely on schedule.
Thinking the boys are dropping one of her prized Olivetti typewriters from the window, brings a shocking look of surprise to Mrs. Hall’s face . . . Priceless!

Very true! This story actually happened at a parochial high school, and I heard the story from a friend several years ago.

High school boys love to pull pranks. The boys in my science class senior year ‘kidnapped’ the science teacher’s sink faucet from the front of the room where he did experiments and demonstrations. They sent the teacher hostage photos of the faucet tied to a chair and duct taped with a list of demands to secure the faucet’s release. At the time, we thought it was hilarious. Now, I think that the science teacher was a saint.

Thanks for sharing Julie. This story was first told to me years ago by a woman who attended a parochial high school, where the boys dropped an old typewriter out of the window on the second floor.
