Start making classroom behavior as important as the subject grade, and start holding parents accountable for the behavior of their children.[/quote]
Needed to be said again.

Students were in charge of the yearbook at my highschool. I wonder if that is the case here.

Even then it's checked before going to the printer. Odds of someone catching something like this are so slim. Sounds like she wants to jump on the law suit wagon.

posted @ Wednesday, May 15, 2013 - 13:38So mama wants the teacher who's in charge of editing the yearbook to face consequences. Maybe mama would like to volunteer next year to do that job...like the teacher did.
I'm not saying that what's in there is right but I doubt the blue jean cut off queen has seen the inside of the school since her precious started there last August.

This will likely be more interesting to you than it was to most. You came to mind when I read it.

Well, thank Zeus for that sort of financially independent moral backbone...

posted @ Monday, May 13, 2013 - 16:16Prosecutors described Gosnell's employees as nearly as desperate as the patients. Some had little or no medical training, and at least one was a teenager still in high school. One woman needed the work to support her children after her husband's murder
If they knew of the horrors going on in this crap hole they should have spoken up the first time they were made aware of it. They're all guilty.

I did, also called her fruit loop. Now excuse me while I fight off the urge to rape and pillage.

I hate fishing! Boring, boring, boring. Just don't get it. Love to eat fish, though. Hate to clean fish as I must have done at least a thousand or more, mostly at my grandparents' lodge for the members when they came in with thier catches.
On my serious note, apparently you have failed to look inside yourself for vestiges of the same desires that drove this animal in the news. It's there. But why look for it if being unaware blocks access to it? Some things are better left alone and unknown, right? Have you never fantisized about bondage, either your own or a woman's? Be honest; it's there and you know it! It's one of those lovely things about men the Onion commentary is addressing.

Why try and bring out something that's not active? Bringing it forward would do nothing more than open the door, would it not?
Big difference between some bedroom S&M and taking a 12 year old off the street to live in a dungeon like setting. Believe it or not most rational humans can control their emotions and primeval desires.
Hating fishing isn't normal either.

I don't have spell check here; I spell out of my own head. I do admit to typos once in a while, like the one in your post. Do you have to spell-check your posts a lot?

Nice, you basically put yourself up on a writers throne but when called out you turn it on me.
I gotta ask....does your chit stink?

They find this topic uncomfortable (too close to home?) so they change the subject. Also, it might be too sophisticated for them.

Or we find you to be a fruit loop so we hijacked your thread just for the fun of it. Want in on the fishing challenge?

Just fishing. I was basically calling out the little blue man.

Sorry, being a bear and all we take fishing as serious business. Kinda like you and your relationship with WD-40...it's a must have kinda thing.

As a huge Backstreet Boys fan, I was little perplexed on reading Nick Carter?s book. It?s not like reading a book about Elvis Presley or The Beatles. I didn?t live through those moments. I didn?t see them in person. But as someone who has followed Nick?s career since I became a fan in 1998, not just in the Backstreet Boys, but as a solo artist, I?ve always thought we had a lot in common besides being the same age. read more

The Athens Banner-Herald sports staff combined to win 11 individual awards on Sunday at the Georgia Sports Writers Association's annual meeting in Marietta. You can get a few more details on that in this story ? "Banner-Herald sports staff wins 11 awards" ? and I thought I'd provide some links to the winning stories for the curious. The awards were for the sports staff's work in 2012. read more
