All In A Day's Randomness

We teachers like to help each other out, sharing lesson plans, books, whatever.  And because we constantly juggle with way too many balls in the air at any given time, sometimes we send out e-mails for help.  I have, for example, been able to fill an art teacher's need for a couple of dozen empty, clean yogurt and/or cottage cheese containers by the next day -- since my father is an artist and since I do a lot of crafts and it is just our habit to clean and save all such containers.
Today, however, all of us on the listserv got two e-mails requesting items that were even more random than usual.
From the counseling office:

We are planning on doing “Graduation Selfies” today (and the rest of the week) during lunches. The Jostens rep has not returned my emails so as of right now we only have my one black graduation robe. Do any of you have a robe and/or cap here at school???

(Yes, some teachers do own their old caps and gowns, but not too many teachers happen to keep theirs at school.)

And from a math teacher:

I need femurs, preferably from animals that have passed this mortal coil. Chicken femurs would work very well but any femur from any animal would be welcome. If it still has bits and pieces of gore attached, no problem; I have my ways of cleaning up a crime scene… I mean… a science lab. I have given myself time to gather my requisite materials, so keep me in mind the next time you have a chicken dinner (or turkey this Thanksgiving) or a Xmas fancy for meat pies (Sweeny Todd). A human femur would be cool… even if it is plastic.

(Femurs.  Okey-dokey.  I'll see what I can do.  Hmmm..... maybe the neighbors' dogs.... *grins evilly*)
(PS.  Yes, at least two of us English teachers are geeky enough to know that he misquoted Hamlet in his first sentence.)

Yup.  I bet all you folks who work in offices never get e-mails like these. :D
