Quote of the day

Not like I'm starting a new feature here where I put up a new quote each day. Just like I'm not doing weekly photo summaries. It's just that I followed a link to a news story and could not resist putting up what must be the best quote I have seen in a news story in some time:

"With the exception of the cross-burning episode... I believe John Freshwater is teaching the values of the parents in the Mount Vernon school district," he told The Columbus Dispatch for a story published Friday.

That cross was burned into his student's ARM, mind you. But hey, exceptions need to be made.
