  1. I won’t make any excuses for them as there are non. BUT......you had to go back to 2010 and 2012 for examples. The fact is that DCS gets well over 200 calls every school year from public schools. So you site two examples....and yeah, I am sure there are more. But this is 2019. You are trying to promote educational freedom, and the world around the young man I mentioned has been turned on its head in a school setting you promote repeatedly on this thread.
  2. Not saying that all.....you know what would NOT happen in those buildings though? They would not cover it up. Not stooping low at all, just showing the hypocrisy in your thinking.
  3. But in so many of your posts about educational freedom and a completely privatized system, as as your beliefs about free markets and businesses being allowed to openly discriminate, you answer your own question with a resounding no.
  4. Yeah, the kind of freedom special needs kids had at Roncalli, right?
  5. Quite possibly the best episode in TV Comedy history. https://youtu.be/lf3mgmEdfwg
  6. These pictures are priceless......enjoy https://www.boredpanda.com/disney-children-down-syndrome-nicole-louise/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=BPFacebook
  7. Some may be out of listening range of the Bob and Tom show, or may be too young to have heard this. Enjoy https://youtu.be/MVJ7itLhDRM
  8. You have a great one as well Dann...I am thankful for that as well.
  9. Ok...seeing a LOT of funny stuff this year. Nothing beats the Mr. Obvious Thanksgiving Day skit, but this is pretty funny. https://youtu.be/SDUDlAEv5pU
  10. Roncalli just cannot seem to keep itself out of the news. Sooooooo many people failed this young man; from the guys on the team he was the most loyal fan of, to the adults in the building who should have done more, but swept it under the rug. I feel horrible for this young man and his mom. Just thinking about the humiliation he experiences replaying these incidents every day makes me sick to my stomach. Sadly, it’s just another example of the double standard in place. A great employee, who excelled at what she did is terminated simply because of who she is, and this stuff is excused by the so many of the same people. The Dean of Students should be dismissed immediately and charged with failure to report. https://www.wthr.com/article/police-investigate-alleged-assault-inside-roncalli-football-locker-room
  11. I have AMC on Demand. It is on there. The last detail I can recall is the group that came to hold the people in the stadium “hostage”. And then the group leaving the stadium for good.
  12. Thanks for the offer. I may take time over Christmas break to catch up. I just need to figure out where I lost track.
  13. I was so hoping Carol would just catch Alpha.......and beat the living dog 💩 out of her. So the previews are showing Negan volunteering to be the next spy? Interesting. Also saw the first commercial for the World Beyond series. So I guess that will show who had the helicopter in TWD? Since showing copters was a part of the preview? I may give it a try. I gave Fear the Walking Dead a try. I am not sure where I got off track, but I have not even been that interested in going back to see.
  14. Too many in this link to keep posting. https://www.someecards.com/memes-lists-comics/memes/gen-x-memes/?fbclid=IwAR2GYtaHewhKvu6ND7g6mHCqBF92Khvz7CfWendowUjpwN2b9hxq657lLBA
  15. With so much on the line in a game like this, and coming off a bye; they don't show up. They made plays at times, and defense looked great for a couple of series. Defense has been on the field too much in the first half. Injuries continue to pile up. This team just looks like it is hanging on, or that they may have peaked last week. The Niners are good....but Green Bay is making them look much better than they are. That said, this conference is going to be between the Saints and the Niners. At least I get to go to bed at halftime. On a side note, what is up with NFL officiating? The USC against Adams was an awful call. The illegal hands to the face was a HORRIBLE call; that was a 3rd down play. The NIners are punting if it is not called. The block in the back on another Green Bay series puts the ball at 2nd and 16. In the Cowboys game, the two tripping calls were horrendous. It is a shame that the NFL is becoming more and more like the NBA.
  16. This story is not written if PSU loses to Indiana......just sayin https://www.elevenwarriors.com/ohio-state-football/2019/11/109347/ohio-state-penn-state-was-foxs-highest-rated-college-football-game-of-the-year?fbclid=IwAR2wr5wfo_9lEbPUVnDRiC3bnDhkAnyg4E8Zb86UgW_FCpB6O82ygfVA0uU
  17. While the injuries are mounting, this was an underwhelming performance to say the least, and so disappointing to see it fall apart as the game progressed. Seeing the record in this series flash on the screen was pretty depressing. While the competitive level was there for most of the game against Penn State, that gave us the feeling the program was still on the right track; it was not there today. The lack of depth in key spots was exposed. Even though they are bowl eligible, I think the Purdue game is a MUST win now.
  18. Per Coach Moore’s twitter account https://twitter.com/headwaynecoach/status/1198028554694516737?s=21
  19. I know it’s not a meme, but this is funny. I admit it seems to lose something in the translation. It actually sounds a little violent. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I am guessing it will become a hit in the bdsm community. 🤣 https://soundcloud.com/jen-usellis-mackay/let-it-go-klingon-version

  21. Wow....that was entertaining reading lol Actually, in reality, it is really sad. I think the significant point is that neither school signed off on the transfer. I cannot think of a case where I have ever seen that happen. I think prep school is the way to go at this point. I also have to think that his stock drops a bit with these details coming out.
  22. I too believe that Capitalism is superior to other systems, BUT is what we are seeing happen truly Capitalism? Or is it just in name only? We see many corporations that paid zero in federal taxes. We see extravagant tax incentives for companies who move their businesses or even keep the business in a community. I have posted many times about the issues with wages. As far as the concept of shareholders, I have known that the number of people who invest in the stock market has dropped significantly. He is an article based on statistics published by the Federal Reserve. https://www.financialsamurai.com/what-percent-of-americans-own-stocks/ All this being said, I have mentioned this before. But there is a perception that permeates younger voters and workers. The perception is that what we are seeing is simply inherent in Capitalism, and that if run properly, socialism is a better system for all. Those who know better and are in power or are in charge of these companies taking full, unethical advantage of the system better figure some things out, or it will be gone. And you are correct, it will be the downfall of the country.
