Politics, current events - reasoned debate and discussion - we can all learn something new.

I think it's bad enough they're eliminating cursive writing, all of our kids won't be able to read cursive let alone write it...

I wonder when Websters going to enter LOL, BFF, IDK and other acronymns to the dictionary?

i also wonder when the urban dictionary will supercede webster's as the dictionary of record...

horse shit...

algebra stays. it is time kids & adults buckeled down & studied. i never had algebra in high school. i was in special classes for kids that have issues. but in college i had algebra for 2 years straight. every quarter i took a math class. it was a frickin hoot. i studied algebra every single day sometimes for six or more hrs, i'm sure of it. i was constantly at the math tutor table, i had moved in on those math geeks and fell in love with difficult math.

if i can mustar up B's & C's i know for a fact others can do the same.

studying all that math plus working @ the fish hatchery and studying my environmental sciences programs... it aint fucking simple. no one ever said life was a walk in the park. it takes hard work and never giving up on what your dreams are.

never ever give in. never ever give up. that shit is instilled into me like nobodies business.
