I dont write that many blogs. I try not to write something unless its something that I myself can create on my own. Meaning...its not something Im taking from the news or from someone elses blog..although Ihave done that in the past. Other bloggers on here just try to accumulate as many points as possible and blog so many times each day....it makes you wonder what

Oops...forgot to sign Ziggy out...that was from me, MarcieHelen
Yay! Give Karen my love and take good care of her, Dave! Welcome home!
So I just read on a forum that I belong to that a fellow biker was clocked at going 82 in a 65. I was surprised by his later reply and some replies on the board. Hmm...maybe I should make a blog post on how people really dont face up to the choices that they make and they trie to swindle their way out of the stupid ones they did make. Later on..
Ok...well myself being a government employee (professional educator), this doesnt apply to all that work for the government. I dont know what it is that drives people to sit down and look at a computer all day and call that a career. But, these people sometimes do that. Maybe its lack of a decent education, no desire to succeed, who knows. Let me clari
Ahh love that song...although i prefer the different versions of it that are out there. I took their chorus and altered it so it said "what would people think if they labeled you a Metal Freak?"...etc. I was doing a Christian Metal show at the time...the clip I made sounded pretty cool too.
I dont have specific examples because its been a long time since I heard someone answer the same type of question you did. Issue wasnt the best choices of words. Maybe...events is better. In the Bible...Jesus was born in Bethlehem. Thats printed in various books in the bible itself. In one book that is not included in the Bible, it says that he was born in Nazareth or something. Not the same town, it maybe close, but it doesnt match what is said
I believe the other books and writings that are not included in the Bible can be looked at as like was said already...from a different point of view. But they do have issues that makes them stand out and be seperated because somethings just dont add up in them. Catholics have the Apocryphia, but other Christian Religions dont. I think they can be looked at as a different point of view, be used as in a historical context...but there are some issues i
Baker, that is true, and you are correct...they are health related. I simply as class policy, do not allow bathroom breaks in the morning unless it is definately needed. Students should go before they come to school or while they are playing outside waiting for the day to begin. I do not hand out passes right away in the morning, unless it is really needed. These aren't babies...they are fourth graders. If they dont have contro
I wonder why....that's gross. Blech!
As a gifted child who was never challenged, I remember. When I came down here, gifted was for those students who were above the others academically, in theory; NOT emotionally or behaviorally or based on intelligence. My fourth graders were at the same exact level that my Second graders were up in ND. The
For those who have an issue with reading lots of words....here is the short version of the above: The problem is, the basic point of a debate is to tear down the other person's argument. For some reason you have become so hyper-sensitive to retort that ANYTHING anyone says about what you say is an attack. You spend half
The problem is, the basic point of a debate is to tear down the other person's argument. For some reason you have become so hyper-sensitive to retort that ANYTHING anyone says about what you say is an attack. You spend half your time here complaining about how people talk to you... No...Ive been spendin
I didnt say anything about gays, nor did I call anyone a slot. Im sorry lil whip if I made you read...I tend to go into detail...Ill pull out an IEP (individualized education process) for you: Lil whips IEP as of June 25...effective for one year...details of this process acknowledge the limited attention span she has and thus therefor recommends shorter phrases such as simple sentences, smaller words and if needed...only yes / no answe
Were we talking about paper cuts or soap squirts or art projects? No, we were talking about the responsibilities of an 11 year old, which you, in your uber-educated, super-mature, almighty wisdom had pretty much deemed to be an utter moron because he got lost in the wildnerness. (And before you start the semantical gymnastics--no
Thanks RW. Baker, I sense sarcasm. In regards to the pencil sharpener incident, another thing that bothers me is the fact that you now admit that you knew who broke it, yet still punished the entire class via the loss of privileges and your intermittent lecturing. As you yourself said, life "sucked" in your clas
You seem to feel that the "end justifies the means" when it comes to discipline, and it also appears that you view parents as belligerent, uneducated hindrances. I can't speak for other parents, but I cooperate with my child's teacher in regard to his education as well as his discipline. TW, I can assure yo
ions. You might not think of classroom behavior. But kids dont fess up and say they did stuff. Sometimes the really honest kids will fess up and say stuff, but I see kids all the time, kicking a ball up ontop of the roof and then looking around to see if anyone saw them, and then they run away. I had kids in Kindergarten that started a fight, and then told their parents that they got hit. Well, then the parents believe their kids and come back
My-- how your story changes when you are called on it.If i found my child being taught by someone who believes in collective punishment like that, I'd pull them out of your classroom.I will not reward the class as a whole for misbehavior" No, but you sure punished the entire class for a single child's misbehavior, didn't ya.
I've asked you to post links to this information. First it was three guys, now it is four. You say she was drunk, though you have no proof of it, other than asuming that anyone that age that goes to a bar gets drunk every time. You guys even used the story given out by the suspects themselves... Actuall
So are we supposed to pat her on the back for going out with total complete strangers? Are we supposed to say "good idea, leaving a party with four unknown strangers. That shows a high level of intelligence and maturity. Im so proud I taught you to leave safety and head out for the unknown." If someone obviously makes a decision which obviously has had no thought put into it...I can't ask why? How can leaving a building with people you dont know b
Wrong. HE is 11 years old. The people responsible for his safety that day should be the ones being questioned, not him. Well...Ill get to your first half in the next part below. The people responsible should be questioned, that is correct. But Id like to know why he did what he did. <TABLE cellpaddi
Crimeny. My girlfriend Marcie (JU MarcieHelen) made a post a couple days ago about Natalee H. in Aruba. That girl from what we hear in the news reports and police...decided to leave a nightclub on her own accord with strangers. Marcie made a post on her blog about the choices this girl made and how nobody seems to be focusing on that. Replies started l
Well today, I managed to get my big ol room all cleaned up and checked out. I handed in the keys to the office staff; checked off everything I could. I had various support staff check off requirements, saying I was ok to leave. And then I left. Felt weird. It felt weird looking in my room, nothing like what it did a week earlier. It felt weird when I w
Sorry, above reply was NOT by MarcieHelen. It was made by me, her boyfriend. She logged onto JU on my computer and I didnt know until after I posted.
