A+
OK, class. I am headed to my hometown for most of the day to visit my now 6 week old Godson. See ya all when I get back. Behave! or not.
What is this world coming to when you can’t even get a fish sandwich from the cafeteria on a Friday? Sometime while I was in Brazil the cafe here stopped offering them. Is it some stupid wellness thing?
They better be back for lent.
:)
Have a great weekend!
That’s all we ever had in the cafeteria on Fridays when I was a kid. It’s also why I brown-bagged it.
The fish sandwich is one of the culinary treats of this area. most every tavern and restaurant makes their own hand-breaded. Not a filet-o-fish frozen and formed monstrosity.
Obviously you can't compare SAT scores between states - some kids are private or prep school kids, not everyone even takes those tests and you don't know how many kids who never plan to go to college take a stab at it because of pressure from the school..... use national testing to compare and look what you find...
Nice data, but it’s all a red herring isn’t it?
#1, Even if they were the best teachers in the world, there still isn’t enough money for them to tie the local district’s hands through collective bargaining
#2, If they were the best in the world then they should stand on their own merits and not need “collective” anything.
It is just another example of the liberals taking “something” and lying and twisting it to their own means. It sounds terrible that these Southern States have such low scores - when in truth Wisconsin tests lower that the “idiots” in my State.
Hey XS, did you realize you were supporting Charlie Sheen when you look at his tweets? He gets paid for every single tweet he makes based on the number of followers he has..... sheesh
Paid by whom?
Sean Hannity said on the radio yesterday that he and Sheen were text messaging. I guess he sent Sheen a message and never expected a response, but he got one.
Just printed out my tix for the Devs/Penguins game tonight.....
Should be a good one.
Apparently there is some agreement with advertisers - depending on the number of folks he has following him, if he holds up Starbucks he gets paid - yesterday he showed Direct TV on his screen..... cash. On the news last night they said Kim kardashian gets $10K per tweet!
I can’t believe anybody makes any money on internet advertising. Maybe for hulu, where they make you watch ads. That makes sense. But just for banners and pop ups and celebrity pos mens?
It should be. What’s the news on Parise? I read he was skating last week. He’s my favorite Eastern Conference guy.
I know nothing about tweets so I’m just repeating what they said on the news last night - sounds crazy to me but I wanted to rag XS about her support of Charlie’s lifestyle...lol
My team plays some Canadian guy named Cal Gary on Sunday.
