School for scandal

We all love pornography, of course, but there are some places where it's not appropriate. Like, say, at a school assembly:

Superintendent Terry Arbogast said in a letter sent home with parents and posted on the district Web site that pornography was downloaded "in the summer time, off school grounds, during non-school hours," and that the accused teacher, Students Against Destructive Decisions adviser Stan Hawkins, "did not have any knowledge of this occurring," the Roanoke (Va.) Times reported Monday.

Hawkins was found not to be at fault for the incident during the Sept. 15 assembly. Students Against Drunk Driving members were supposed to have viewed a film on drunken driving but instead viewed the pornographic video "by default" when the DVD malfunctioned, Arbogast said. The video played for about five seconds.

Okay, I'm not sure how a DVD can "malfunction" and show porn. Either there's porn on the DVD or there isn't. Or so I've been told.
