Some time ago, I saw a list of ludicrous excuses,
that had actually been given to teachers, by students, explaining why they had not done their homework.

I believe I had also seen another list,
of notes that parents had written to their child's teacher, on why the child was absent, and those 'reasons' were equally ludicrous!
