A student today brought a note from her mother to excuse her from the homework because she was too busy babysitting.

That's hysterical!
I got a good one the other day: A student thought that because I canceled my Monday office hours that Tuesday class was canceled too. I asked him if he'd read the email I'd sent out, and he said, "Yeah, you didn't mention that Tuesday class was canceled, but I just figured it would be if you weren't around on Monday."
Huh?
Aagh!!!
Talk to me! (You know you want to!)
