Want Ad of the Day



The three or four people who've been following this blog since Biblical times (this is my 750th entry) know that a few months ago I posted a want ad for a school bus driver opening in Fairfax, Va., that I saw when I was in Washington, DC, back in January.

I said the ad would be perfect for Otto, the school bus driver from "The Simpsons."

When I combed through the classifieds in the Sunday edition of "The Washington Post," which is still somewhat available in Roanoke, Va., I found another want ad that could relate to a 'Simpsons' character.

Arlington Public Schools in Arlington, Va., a mere five miles outside the nation's capital, is looking for a principal for Campbell Elementary School.

The ad reads as follows:

"Arlington Public Schools seeks exceptional high energy, flexible, accessible principal with an interest in Expeditionary Learning at Campbell Elementary School."

Job seekers will need at least three years of administrative and teaching experience in a culturally diverse school setting..........hmm, I suppose that disqualifies applicants from places like Eden, NC!
