    School Mascot
    The school mascot is the raccoon.
    Until 2003 the mascot was simply the Coon (later changed to the Fighting Coon). Though coon is a shortened form of raccoon, it is also considered in some circles to be a racial slur against African-Americans. After some residents filed a court case, the school board elected to change the mascot to raccoon

    It stood on its hind legs like it was prepared to meet its maker. Then all the fur came in his open window and got all over his face

    Harden your bark, there are storms on the horizon.
    ahhh...a suicide ,eh? the rabbits around these parts prefer to go that way too. there he is, sitting along side the road...waiting...sitting...waiting...sitting...he'd be fine if he'd just stay on the berm...but no...as soon as you get close, he runs right out in front of you to shake hands with death...seemingly on purpose, and for no real reason in particular. i find it odd that a lot of times when this happens...there is another rabbit there somewhere witnessing the whole thing...maybe it's Jihad practice or something :confused: 72 virgin rabbits await....
