I don’t know what everybody is talking about with Johnny. I got to class late. Whatever went on with him happened before I got there. I do know that Mr. Gates got something against Johnny. He has ever since Freshman year. As soon as he found out that Donnie was his brother.

Well, Mrs. Bronson, I don’t pretend to know about all of this stuff. My head is full of sports trivia. For example, did you know that Michael Morgan of the Sox went to this school The only reason that I was able to get a passing grade in this class is because I was allowed to color a picture of a banana for extra credit. I thank God that a D- is still considered passing. But a guess that all I need to do is tell you what I saw.

Mrs. Bronson, the word around school is that all of this was Johnny’s fault. I don’t know how it happened, but I also don’t know why people are always blaming Johnny for all of the bad things that happen. Like when the fire alarm was pulled last week. Who did they blame? Johnny! And when Billy was locked in his locker. Who did they blame? Johnny! When Mr. Martins butt was glued to the chair, they automatically blamed Johnny. Johnny is the nicest, sweetest, cutest boy in the school. His only flaw is that he hangs around with that Qwan boy. They’re so different.

The Amazing Power of AI. AI-Generated.
This contains AI generated text. When I was in high school, I watched a video where a camera connected to a computer was pointed at a cup. The computer analyzed the image for a few minutes before the word cup appeared on the screen. This was in the mid 1990’s. At that time, the very thought of a computer being able to “think” about the identity of an item was completely science fiction. Fiction being the key word. To see that the technology was real, I was completely amazed.

I don’t know who you have already spoken to, but I didn’t do nothing. It wasn’t me. His face was like that when I walked into the room. They are always blaming me for stuff that I ain’t do. Why do they do that. I’m perfectly innocent. They have no proof to pin nothing on me. If they do, show me. I AIN’T DO IT.

Ok. This is what I recall. I was the first person in the class. Make that the first student. Mr. Gates was already there. Science happens to be my favorite subject. Since I had Study Hall before that, I was able to leave and get a jump start on the project. I know that you can’t tell by looking at me, but I’m a genius. I’m smarter than Mr. Gates and all of these other teachers combined. Check my test scores.

From the Viewpoint of Mr. Gates
First of all, Mrs. Bronson, I want you to know that the class project was approved by the school board. This assignment was in no way responsible for what happened. I do admit that we were experimenting with electricity and flammable gases, these were done in a very safe manner. We followed all the guidelines to the letter. I’m not stupid. The project was simple. We ran a small electric current through a tub of water splitting the molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. The burners were used to distill the water. Tap water has chlorine and other contaminants that could affect the outcome of the project. Anyway, that’s getting off the subject. You want to know what happened.

Opening Statement by Mrs. Bronson
As you all should know, my name is Wendy Bronson. I’m the principle of Bunsen Highschool. Today is Friday, November 15th. Classes are closed today as major repairs are under way to our science department. I like to believe that I am a fair and just educator. My office has an open-door policy. I welcome any student, teacher, parent or any other person to come speak to me anytime. If at any time I am not in my office, I give my phone number to people to give me a call. I always listen to each side when more than one person is telling a story. I believe that honesty should be rewarded while dishonesty should be punished. This has nothing to do with why the school is closed for the day. We did not receive any extra money to advance science.

My name is Sam Bunsen the 4th and I’m the mayor of this wonderful town. My great-grandfather was the first mayor and the founder of Bunsen. That’s why the town was named after him.
