Coffee, Hot Chocolate and Missiles

Today, in honor of President's Day, I asked my students to draw a picture of what they would do if they were the president.  Several mentioned that they would make gas free, several said they would close all the schools (I get a few of those every year!) and one rather eclectic student said he would lay on the carpet, play darts and paint the walls pink! But the most interesting idea came from one of my students who is usually not prone to inventive or imaginative answers.  He brought me a picture of a machine with three buttons and a stick figure president with his hand near one of the buttons.  When I asked him what the buttons were for he said, " One button is for coffee, one button is for hot chocolate and one button is for the missiles to kill the evil doers and the drug dealers".  Coffee, Hot Chocolate and Missiles.  Works for me.
