S.F. teachers urged to emulate Jimi Hendrix:
"Remember the first time you heard Jimi Hendrix?" reads the cover of the district's new 51-page education guide. "Our plan is as transformational now as his music was then!"
Given that Hendrix died of an OD at 27, maybe this is a way to keep the staff fresh and not have to worry about paying out for those pesky pensions?

For any teachers under the age of, say, 40, wouldn't the first question be "Jimi who?"
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
