People can be so dang dumb, it flummoxes me occasionally.
From the Fort Worth Star-Telegram:
Teachers quit after off-color e-mails found
Two Carroll district high school teachers
resigned after administrators discovered that they wrote hundreds of
racy e-mails on the district’s computer system.<snip>
Often on school time, the two teachers
used their Carroll e-mail accounts to write about sexual escapades,
adventures at local bars, and encounters through an Internet dating
service.The e-mails also critique area extracurricular competitions and rehash episodes of the TV shows Desperate Housewives and American Idol.
Under the Texas Public Information Act, the district released 407
pages of e-mails that the two teachers wrote and received from January
through March 2005.“We had no idea we were going to find all of this,” said Derek
Citty, Carroll’s chief personnel officer. “Neither one of them ever
deleted anything.”It’s hard to believe there are still people
so clueless they’d actually use their employee-provided (and a
governmental employee, at that) email account to send Messages of an
Unsuitable Nature.

The public school which district we were in when we lived in the country in Idaho had a principal who viewed teen porn from his office computer, during school hours.
Isn’t that ICKY? I was praising the Lord that Abbie wasn’t attending there. Her girlfriends who WERE attending that school at the time were…shudder…teenaged girls. The school board “spoke to him” and his religious leader (Mormon bishop) told him he must tell his wife everything, and when the school year was up, he was out a job.
yeah. I was very happy to be a homeschooler at that point.
