HBO @ Noon: A Memorable Valentine’s Day

re: SR Vox Box adviser Erin Daniels e-mailed this Huckleberry from Feb. 21, 2005, to me today

A funny thing happened to Sandpoint High J- instructor Erin Daniels in her sixth-period class last Monday (Valentine’s Day 2005). Her water broke. In an e-mail announcing the birth of Emma Marie, she blames the poor timing on Principal Jim Soper. Quoth: “He was in my room 5th, and just being a real pain.” Editor Chris Ginzton of the Cedar Post rushed to Erin’s rescue, despite turning the wrong way down a street as he drove his adviser to the hospital. Erin’s favorite line from Chris during the hospital rush? “Can I help? Should I be helping you breathe or anything?” Later, a visibly shaken Chris said, “I don’t know how dads DO that!” Or moms! Erin and Emma are doing fine. Ah’m not so sure about Chris.

Question: Do you have a fond Valentine’s Day remembrance?
