Hehe, possibly. Although a guy in my class went back to teach there a couple of years later. There must have still been students there from when he was a student. Awkward.

I'll ask a question I suppose.

In the Bible who were Seth's parents and for extra points who were his brothers?

Reminds me of how I used to write on the inside cover of the bibles at school:

'All characters portrayed in this book are purely fictional, any resemblance to any persons living or dead is purely coincidental.'

The Canager - Hiding behind the crib?

Correct!!! sorry i was out all day i couldnt get online!!!

The"canager" or also named the defacator is a common figure in the Christmas Cribs from Catalonia (a tradiotion that started in the 18th century). The traditional canager is a East-Catalanian farmer or vagabond.

He cowers and defecate. On the ground behind him you can find a piece of dung that represents fertility (the enrichment of the ground to get a abundant crop/harvest), hope and prosperity. Jesus has come to make the earth fertil.
It's a tradition to hide this funny person behind the stable. The tradition to have this farmer in the crib has grown so strong in the Spanish region, that the Katholic Church doens't dare to forbid it.
