Wednesday Wipe Out
"I am at peace with myself and the world around me," Kelly said to himself with his eyes closed. On his desk was a book titled Meditation for Dummies. "Everything is calm and serene. I am in control of my actions and my destiny. I did not see a penguin yesterday. It was an illusion caused by stress. I did not see a penguin yesterday. It is impossible that I saw a penguin yesterday. I did…"
"Principal Kelly?" Dorothy walked in. "What are you doing?"
"I am meditating," He informed her. "My doctor told me that my stress levels were too high. So it was either this or alcohol. And I'm seriously trying to cut down."
"Good for you," Dorothy said. "Um, you're wanted in room 103 again. They're having some kind of trouble with the pipes."
"Not again," Kelly sighed and went out of his office to the room. He tried to open the door but it was locked. "What the…?" He banged on the door several times. "Open this door right now!" Finally he managed to open it.
And was promptly drenched by a small tidal wave.
"Well why not?" Kelly spat. "I mean we already have earthquakes and tornadoes around here so why not tidal waves?"
"Uh sorry about that…" The custodian swam up to him. "I kinda had some trouble with the pipes. They overflowed a little."
"No kidding!" Kelly spat out water. Soon the halls were flooded. "Oh great!"
Todd swam by. "I can't continue any more!" He gasped. "I'm drowning! Drowning! I see my life flashing before my eyes! This is it! The big one! I'm going down! Down! Down! Down to the depths of a watery grave!" He sank underwater leaving bubbles in his wake.

"I know that," Todd popped his head up. "I was just messin' with ya."
"What is that smell?" Kelly groaned.
"There must be some sewage or something," The custodian held his nose.
"Or something," Todd gulped. "SHARK!" He swam away.
"Oh for crying out loud, Tolensky there are no…Yikes!" He shouted and jumped into the custodian's arms as he saw a small fin behind him.
Pietro popped up with a fake fin tied to his forehead. "Just when you thought it was safe to swim in the halls again," He snickered.
"Maximoff!" Kelly snapped as he climbed down. "Never mind…I'm out of here!"
"I am going to call my doctor," Kelly said as he walked into his office, leaving puddles all over the floor. He closed the door and sat at his desk. He opened a drawer and pulled out a bottle. "Calling Dr. Daniels," He said. "Dr. Jack Daniels…"
