PORTLAND, Ore. -- A bogus letter urging parents of Lincoln High School students to supply kids with alcohol on prom night and to open their homes for sex and alcohol and drug use was sent to families this week, school officials said Thursday.

It even gives quantity recommendations.
“The Oregon Liquor Control Commission has stated that a fifth of alcohol, like Hennessy Cognac, is sufficient supply for at least 8 adults. One can assume that for 17 to 18 year old individuals, one fifth can probably be spread out to 4 students. Considering our reputation (Drinkin’ Lincoln), in some cases one fifth is only enough for a single person.”
The letter urges parents to adopt a “realistic approach” to drug and alcohol abuse as well as sexual activity.
Two condoms were included with the letters, which appeared to have been printed on school letterhead.
