High School Employees Deface Yearbooks

To cover up an embarrassing photo that somehow made it past the High School Yearbook editors, the principal and other staffers carved a dirty photo from every student’s yearbook.

My Belch.Com Yearbook page has other great ideas on what to do to yearbooks at this time of year. But putting in nasty photos such as the one below was, unfortunately, not on that list.

From the WashingtonPost here:

Bill Clendaniel, the principal at Langley High School, was flipping through a copy of his school’s new yearbook when he, well, flipped. There, on page 341, was a photograph of what was clearly a giant phallus made of snow. It was sitting in the back of a blue Ford F-250 pickup truck.

Some students at the high school in McLean called the towering snow sculpture a lighthouse or a rocket ship. Clendaniel called it something else altogether: offensive.

No way was Clendaniel going to send the more than 1,600 yearbooks home with that image, even though it wasn’t much bigger than a postage stamp. There was only one thing to do. Cut them all out. One by one.

So school employees did just that, using an inch-square hole punch, until each and every offending photo was gone, leaving an unmistakable hole in every 2005-2006 yearbook.
