One is Amy P's son who's private HS fell apart and she was unhappy with the defacto religious public schools in Salt Lake.

Mal: So we run. Nandi: I understand, Captain Reynolds. You have your people to think of, same as me. And this ain't your fight. Mal: Don't believe you do understand, Nandi. I said 'we run'. We.

I just got an invitation to a wedding in the post. The wedding of a friend of mine from school. I think I'm hyperventilating. Why?! Why is she getting married?! She's twenty-one for Christ's sake!
I'll be rocking back and forth in the corner, forcing my brain into denial if anyone needs me.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
That's right, Lizard too. She took a number of college courses in home-school high-school, didn't she?

Oh, on the freaky religious front, the parents of the McCaughey septuplets opted to send their seven little butts to school unlike they'd originally planed.
Good call.

I saw this on sale for $180 off the list price. Want for my kids. I haven't thought of a justification yet though.

My wife has explicitly rejected home schooling materials that push religion (which is a lot of them) and went with a public school distance learning program instead. So although she is quite religious, the homeschooling is more of a distrust of the public schools to give enough attention to our daughter who can read, write, do math and only qualifies for kindergarten next year. Heck, if our daughter was six days younger she'd probably be in public school right now.

Gud, O's birthday is next month. Sadly, those kiddie cars don't fit the budget. They're wicked cool, though.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Doesn't Emmett attend a private school?
Dude, don't you think my hypocrisy filter would've prevented me from posting that if it were true? No, he does not.
However, he does go to school in the best public school district in northern california, a little sub-city which exists solely for the school district. His elementary school sits right next to University Village where UC Berkeley warehouses their grad students who have families - so his school is particularly overrun with high achieving smartypants.
eta: which is just to say I don't have to worry about the quality of this education, which is, without question, orders of magnitude higher than what I received.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Why is she getting married?! She's twenty-one for Christ's sake!
A number of my college friends did that upon graduation. I decided it was as close to being betrayed in favor of The Man as I was likely ever to see in my humdrum existence.
