After being interviewed by the school administration, the prospective teacher said:
'Let me see if I've got this right.
'You want me to go into that room with all those kids, correct their disruptive behavior, observe them for signs of abuse, monitor their dress habits, censor their T-shirt messages, and instill in them a love for learning.
'You want me to check their backpacks for weapons, wage war on drugs and sexually transmitted diseases, and raise their sense of self esteem and personal pride.
'You want me to teach them patriotism and good citizenship, sportsmanship and fair play, and how to register to vote, balance a checkbook, and apply for a job.
'You want me to check their heads for lice, recognize signs of antisocial behavior, and make sure that they all pass the final exams.
'You also want me to provide them with an equal education regardless of their handicaps, and communicate regularly with their parents in English, Spanish or any other language, by letter, telephone, newsletter, and report card.
'You want me to do all this with a piece of chalk, a blackboard,a bulletin board, a few books, a big smile, and a starting salary that qualifies me for food stamps.
'You want me to do all this and then you tell me...... I CAN'T PRAY?

Apparently Sara Sidle is returning to CSI for 5 episodes....YAY!
Now, if they can get Gil to come back for a visit all will be right in the world.

Johnny Depp as The Mad Hatter next year...can't wait.

How come on crime shows when the cops ask a suspect "for the clothes you wore that night" the guilty people actually give them the real clothes? I know if I were guilty I sure as hell wouldn't. "Yeah, yeah, these are the clothes"

A long time ago I wrote about how I loved watching my DVD of old Dragnet episodes because actors who went on to become big stars often show up in guest star roles. Now I have a new reason : I've been re-watching some and have noticed in the credits that people I hear on old radio shows also appear frequently and now I can put faces to the names. Kinda cool for me.

There is a job opening in Salmo that I qualify for : office/clerical/bookkeeping stuff, gee, only EXACTLY what I went to school for ! Plus it's union! Wish me luck.

Was telling a friend that skiing has replaced alcohol as my main passion in life but that either one leads to a downhill slide! hahaha.


okay, that's all folks and, as usual, stay safe, stay happy. And if you can't do that - take the bastards down with ya!
