FRAZZ BY JEF MALLETT Caulfield: Why not use the big air compressor at the gas station? Frazz: Bicycle tires are lower volume. Fill them with too much too fast and you'll have a blowout. Caulfield: You know, I'm inspired to craft an analogy between that and my young brain and this pile of homework. So are you, and I bet I don't like it. Frazz: You also don't want to wait until the end of the season to cram 12 weeks' worth of air into them.

And the truth is none of it will be graded. All the teacher will do is check to see that it was done.

I did that, when I was younger and stupid. I carry the scars on my face, hands and knees. Thankfully I did wear my helmet properly. Square on the head and strapped firmly under the chin. Saved my brains.

My father uses a bike pump to fill his car tires. How weird is that??

Zoidknight, as a teacher who just spent 14 hours this past weekend working on grades for end-of-the-year projects, I am offended by your comment. I know that there are some teachers who don’t measure up to the expectations, but the large majority of teachers work many hours outside of the classroom to prepare lessons and grade assignments. You are probably one of the people who make comments about how “teachers are done every day at 3:00.” Since I coach the show choir and drama productions, my work days are rarely done before 6:00pm. THEN I go home and work even more to prepare for the next day. Now, tell me what YOUR job is, so I can take some cheap shots at your profession.

I love your comic, the people look so 3D they seem to be really standing. The back view of the ears is so cute too. Yes, teachers often work overtime without compensation. Teachers are the ones that teach us the basics and put up with us.

One would think that a “young brain” would be nice and flexible when ingesting knowledge.
