sometimes I fashion a holding pattern within my thoughts I caress Lancelot's demonic sword I need it to keep myself sane as the world is going completely bonkers they are out there prancing within the Revolution splashed on TV's screens and computer monitors the gang mentality strutting down the middle of streets stopping traffic harassing everybody, women and children there are laws being disregarded that meant there are LAWS broken people calling for the murder of Zimmerman another law broken authorities do nothing we are living in a monumental tragic time Iran's Islamic government foreign ministry criticizes Zimmerman's acquittal this, coming from the most racist and brutal religionists on the face of the earth THAT IS SCARY FOLKS ~*~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

We allowed the ultra liberal teachers union to dictate what children learned in school for the last fifty years. They don't even teach the history of America, or if they do, it is slanted. We are in a sad state. ~*~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

uh hem...It would be the community elected schoolboards and Boards of Education I believe that have the last say on curriculums.What teacher are required to teach out of the new text books. I know in my case, I work with union teachers, they get to have "in put" on new teaching software for computer based classes. But their in put is irrelevant because the Schoolboard/Board of Education calls the shots and ultimately gets what it wants. Teachers are an easy target. I say you have valid points but aim higher at Universities where all the PHD's are doing the real crazy thinking. At the highschool level we are still just pushing the basics and fighting again over whether we come from monkeys or God's Playdough. On the inside on this one my friend. Like I said you have some very valid points Jerry. Lori |

I knew you would zero in on me here, Lori. Yes, You are correct, the School Board, et al, are the real culprits, and yes again on the colleges and universities. Thank you for your valuable input. ~*~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

I worked in the schools for thirty years and all I can say is education these days is nothing more than a complete brain washing. Ida |
