Here's the third installment of rebus puzzles I made in grade school. (Click for a larger version):
Check out Challenge #1 and Challenge #2 for an introduction to my oeuvre and for solving clues. My sister Missy had the first correct answer last time, while Grant provided the best surrealist answer (with my sister Tina between the two extremes). Post your answers in the comments section!

What kind of child sadist were you?
Very nice! I thought that my crossing out of the ten commandments wouldn't so clearly be recognized as "sin" but Grant got it! And the probabilistic interpretation is that I wanted to go on November 24: given all the ways I could have gotten to 12, it seems unlikely that I would have chosen all presidents who happen to appear on dollar bills. (Challenge problem: calculate the p value for that hypothesis, if all presidential number sums to 12 are weighted equally.) I'm sad that my ember-belching fireplace was so opaque. "Defenstrated rock" and "radioactive orb" are good guesses. And while "it's log it's log" made me laugh, you're forgetting that the note was written some 25 years ago.
