I have another embarrassing moment on the other thread but Campfire, you reminded me of a similar incident I had in high school. I was in 7th grade (13, I guess) and I was presenting to the class, a paper I had written on the subject of heroin. I was trying my best to be a forceful speaker, when I said that the government was trying to "stop the poppy crop." (If you only read this phrase, it's not half as funny as it is if you say it out loud...and I had never said it out loud until I got to class). Anyway, the kids roared with laughter!! They were nearly falling out of their desks onto the floor! I had to laugh, too, cuz it was SO ridiculous-sounding...but my face was on FIRE, it was so red! But it still makes me laugh...
