Streakers FFC

Every year at the start of the year, I bring in a Windex bottle full of blue power-aid to the classroom, and spray some on the board as if to clean it. (I have a bottle of fresh water in my bag to clean it off later) Then I drink from the bottle, freaking the students out. After skulling about half of it, I explain that every now and then I get the urge to run around without any clothes on, point to the bottle and say "This stuff prevents streaking."
