In Canada and the UK, the word is learnt instead of learned.

No way anyone learned this many things in public school. This is obviously a home schooled plant.

The fear of Lord is the beginning of wisdom and to depart from evil is understanding.

Governor John e. Baldacci, a man who was over his head when he was washing dishes in his momma's resturant. And Maine makes him governor so his momma can get a dishwasher that remembers to wash first and then rinse.

I wonder what the writer has against 'To Kill a Mockingbird.'

Wow! Excellent list. There were too many great lines to highlight just a few.

Homeschool bump.

The (overrated) book, To Kill a Mockingbird, has been officially deified by the public school system.

It's a good book but certainly not the Geatest Novel Written in English as some make it out to be (that would be Joyce's Ulysses).

Okay, Freepers. The challenge is now open to expand this list so that it becomes, "The 100 Things I learned in the North American Public School System."

Who wants to present observation numbers 67-100?

When I went to school in Canada (until I started university in 1968), I could never have identified the politics or religion of any of my teachers. They didn't inflict their personal opinions on us.

This might just be worth a Homeschool Ping (and a chuckle).

What I learned as a homeschooler....

Oops, I didn't learn to count that high. What comes after "googleplex", anyway?
