Sarah Snub Sparks Scandal

Controversy erupted this Friday at Alameda Elementary when seven-year old Sarah Henderson refused to bring a Valentine for fellow classmate Corey Parker.

"I don't like him!" Sarah reported. "He's a poop!" She then giggled.

This snub is the latest in the long history of coldness between Sarah and Corey, which famously began last March when Corey pushed Sarah down during recess. Sarah told reporters that she did not feel the twenty minute time out was a sufficient punishment.

"It was a miscarriage of justice, and I'm not getting him a Valentine, so there!" Sarah then stuck out her tongue.

"Obviously, I'm disappointed. I made it very clear that students were not to bring Valentines unless they brought one for each student. That's why I gave her a detention," said Mrs. Swanson, the students' teacher. "What he did was wrong, but we won't accept vigilante justice."

A small group of radicals had planned to protest the detention, but they forgot and played kickball instead.
