> Falling plaster can be very educational. One summer when I was working in the maintence department, they put me to work painting classrooms. I went into one room and found that a piece of plaster the size of a meat platter had fallen from the ceiling. I painted around it, but when the supervisor came in I told him about the fallen plaster. He mixed up some plaster, got a ladder and climbed up there and patched it. Then as I was leaving, he told me to paint the patch the first thing the next morning. I asked him if it would be dry by then and he gave me a look and said, "Just paint it."

That made me laugh myself silly. You wouldn't lie to me, would you Howard?
