An armed two year old is a two year old that doesn't WANT a nap. You fuckin got that? You see what I'm packin'? Good, now get me a cookie and some milk, bitch.

I retired teacher myself, I respectfully disagree. One parent making noise, even ridiculous noise, can rattle administrative cages. See post above: 1 angry parent=10,000.

"And by the way, if my Trevor doesn't get an A+ in every course, you must not be a very good teacher!"

Well maybe SCOPE will garner enough criticism and outrage over this that New York will rethink this whole privatizing the educational system....Yeah and wingnuts will suddenly stop blaming mass shooting victims (and their families) for their own deaths, too.

For some reason they couldn't win a contract in Tennessee.

Good times! At least for those few minutes we weren't doing long division.

At this point, it's probably all ironic timing.

Conversely, we figured out, even as kids, that the Bremerton navy base and Seattle Boeing plants were far enough away from our town that we'd probably survive - at least the initial onslaught.

Actually, one of the reasons I wanted to move to Noo Yawk is that, if it happened, I wanted to be in the middle of the bullseye and not know anything about it.

Her Scissor Sister and her Indigo Girls

While SCOPE is not-for-profit, we, the parents, pay to have our children there. I am one of the parents of a son who was giggling. None of us thought this was a big deal but one parent, who made a point of having GiGi fired. Nice piece of work, huh?

SCOPE refuses to speak to any of the parents but this one (who, not a surprise, happens to be a teacher and probably talked to a board member). They really just want us to go away, and do not understand the groundswell of support to reinstate GiGi. It's mindboggling to me.
