(( Haha, one of the greatest kids' writers of all time, and you call him Hans something Anderson?? XD ))
Correct Emma! However, since you only answered half of my question, you'll get 3 points.
Nobody really invented the basketball. Certainly not James Naismith, and not Tony Hinkle. Basketballs were invented in the 40s by companies that wanted a separate ball for basketball. Prior to this, a soccer ball was used for basketball.
*eyes flash at Gus, and grits her teeth* How can I make this class more interesting for you then, Mr. Gus?

*rolls her eyes* No, you may not. Class will be over in 20 minutes, and then it'll be lunchtime. I think you can hold out.
And why should I? *a tawny colored owl flies in through the open window at her right and lands on her shoulder, drops a letter into her hands, and flies off again. She opens the letter and reads it to herself. Her eyes widen and her eyebrows shoot into her forehead, but she smooths her face over again, and nods* Yes Hannah, you may go to lunch early.

(( Aaaah sorry, I had to go to sleep. >_< If not, I fall asleep in class. I mean, I do that anyway, but when I don't go to sleep early, it's even worse. O_o ))
(( XD Oh gosh!! HOW do you do it, you *tries to think of an animal that hardly sleeps and fails* ..you, not-tired..person!!!
I'm exclusively a night owl. Which is why waking up at 6 to go to school..sucks. stinks. is bogus. etc. I've probably already ranted about this a thousand times, so I'll stop.
So how many hours of sleep do you get?? O_o ))

(( Haha, well that's a relief. ^_^ Nah, painkillers don't count unless you develop an addiction.
Oh Madi, tsk tsk. You should sleep more! I have another friend who only sleeps like 2 hours a day, ..but then..he seems to be ok..well, whatever, just..take naps!!))

(( Oh my goooooosh! That's so awesome!! :D
Wow--I think it'd be weird to meet Anna in real life, she'd probably be all gorgeous and glowing from good skin and high fashion, and I'd come in with my baggy jeans and ratty t-shirt and...haha. XD
But tell us more about your trip!!))

Oh really? :) He sounds like an important guy!!
Anyway, nah, just--are you going to see the sights? Like the Statue of Liberty and whatnot? :D ))

(( Madi--do me a favor, whilst you're in New York, try both New York style pizza and hot dogs, and describe them to me so I can justify that Chicago food is better. >:D ))
(( Shoot! I forgot that...I guess I'll have to find out for myself someday.
But you can tell me who has better vegetarian pizza? :D ))

Okay, as I was saying, we're going to be studying basketball.
So--basketball was invented by something Muggles call, "a gym teacher," which is a profession that's like a professor, except they teach students how to feel bad about being uncoordinated, feel good about pummeling fellow students into the ground with dodgeballs, and how to feel uncomfortable about their bodies.
Anyway, basketball was invented by am American gym teacher named James Naismith. It's a game where a basketball *points to a basketball she has on her desk* is dribbled *does air quotes when she says "dribbled" and then picks up the basketball and bounces it up and down with her palm* along a court, which is what the playing field is called. The court is made out of wood. At the ends of the court are the baskets, which players must try to throw the ball into. Any questions before I move on?
