[Mad Dawg]

You've got kids at a time of life when their memories actually function and the schools don't ask 'em to use them? It's CRAZY.

The 'orrible brat child bankrupted us by going to a private school (K-8) which was full of assemblies and performances and recitations and whatnot. I'll never forget a dramatized production of Horatio at the Bridge. And then to hear one of the 8th grade boys doing "I know a bank where the wild thyme grows" in a class production of Midsummer Nights Dream? AWESOME!

Meantime at the local gummint school they were teaching 4th grade girls go-go dancing!

SUBLIME! Future doctors, lawyers and business leaders, one may hope.

Future fecund Medicare patients and court appointment clients for the newly admitted to practice on.
