OMFG of the Day

So last night, whilst at a housewarming party, the news was on. Big whoop, right? It gets better. So the party is kind of loud, and I'm just watching the news and just seeing pictures and videos - and then all of a sudden BOOM! I see a mug shot of someone who looked eerily familiar. JOSEPH PONSI. Oh yeah, he was one of the guidance counselors at my old high school! I thought it was some local news garbage and thought nothing of it.

HOWEVER, I decided to Google search him, and was surprised to find the following article:
"Police said Thursday night a child pornography sting in northern New Jersey has resulted in 21 arrests. Bergen County Prosecutor John Molinelli released mug shots of 16 of the men. The other five are juveniles. All are accused of trading images of child porn on the Internet. The youngest child depicted was a 2-year-old. Molinelli said one of the men, 63-year-old Joseph Ponsi of River Vale, works as a guidance counselor in the Palisades Park school system. " (wcbstv.com)

WTF!!! CHILD PORN??

Okay, he wasn't my guidance counselor because my last name starts with a "P" - Mr. Ponsi had all students with last names beginning with A - K. But since a lot of my friends are Korean and have the most popular Korean last name of "Kim," I got to know him through many trips to the guidance office, especially junior and senior year, when SATs and college applications were the rave.

From what I remember, he was such a nice man. He used to be a wrestling coach, and had a tank of fish in his office. He always offered his help to me, even though I wasn't technically one of his "girls," as he affectionally nicknamed me and my friends.

Good Lord. He even signed my yearbook. I even stopped by his office to talk when I wasn't in the mood to go to class!

Wow, simply stunning.
