Apologies if this is an oldie, but I've just seen this pinned up on
the staff-room notice board at the school where I teach (the cello -
is that allowed!) I loved it, and thought it was particularly
relevant to us on this list:

Then Jesus took his disciples up the mountain and gathering them
around him, he taught them, saying:

Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven
Blessed are the meek Blessed are they that mourn Blessed are the
merciful Blessed are they who thirst for justice Blessed are all the
concerned Blessed are you when persecuted Blessed are you
when you
suffer Be glad and rejoice, for your reward is great in heaven Try to
remember what I'm telling you

Then Simon Peter said
will this count?
and Andrew said
will we have a test on it?
and James said
when do we have to know it for?
and Philip said
how many words?
and Bartholemew said
will I have to stand up in front of the others?
and John said
the other disciples didn't have to learn this
and Matthew said
how many marks do we get for it?
and Judas said
what is it worth?
and the other disciples likewise.

Then one of the Pharisees who was present, asked to see Jesus'
lesson
plan and inquired of Jesus his terminal objectives in the cognitive
domain.

And Jesus wept.
