MORE NONSENSE

What the heck is 'communities in schools"? Saw this ad for a .org.  It claims to "see how we help all kids in school... in schools to encourage healing."  What the heck is this nonsense?

Do you that the ultimate gift for a graduate is a "Tiger Lady?"  Claws come out of a hand-held device when you swipe at your attacker and collect DNA.  I kid you not.

Students in our schools have dyslexia, ADHD, hunger, depression and suicidal tendencies. Who knew?  Yet we see the success of  8 competitors in the National Spelling Bee.  Each of the 8 winners received a trophy and $50,000.  No participation trophies were awarded.  Truly no nonsense.

Now to my quote for the upcoming Father's Day.  Priscella Mason in 1793 delivered these inspirational words:  Our high and mighty lords (thanks to their arbitrary constitutions) have denied us the means of knowledge and then reproached us for the want of it.... The Church, the Bar, the Senate are shut against us.   Who shut them? Men; despotic man, first made us incapable of duty, and then forbid us to exercise.  Let us by suitable education, qualify ourselves for these high departments.  They will open before us."  Obviously it took a while to 'level the playing field,' for women but today,  2019, you men, you fathers, you buyers beware.
