The county sees this as a way to save LOTS of money.
And lose a lot of teachers? That sounds crazy.
I kissed him, and I told him that I loved him. And I killed him.

Someone on my Facebook friends just posted this video, a clip of a speech this summer from the Secretary Treasurer of the AFL-CIO to the Steelworkers Union on Obama and race.
After all the ugliness that's been going around the past week or so and the truly scary and disgusting turn things have taken in some quarters, this should be required viewing. Fantastic.

So last week I discovered my vcr remote died, and I can't get the universal to program it. Tonight, I discovered my vcr is dying. Squealing and fried picture.
I'll have to decide what to replace it with. I'm not going tivo route, something cheaper.

Sara, I'd look on your local freecycle or craigslist. I have seen free vcrs and cheap dvd players. I got my tivo for free, but then you have to pay for the service.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Latin??? Seriously??? FAIL.
My mother loved Latin.
I should clarify; I wasn't dissing Latin, or the study of same; I just think that if the NYT wants to hang on to any illusion it has about being The Paper of Record, it should be accessible to a lot more people, and I just don't think pretentious, self-congratulatory op-eds partially in Latin are the way to do that.
It was a new type of tl;dr for me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Too Latin, didn't read?

My mother tried to get my two older sisters and I to do a puppet show version of the Latin Pooh. I was Christopher Robin. I don't remember too much except it was one of Mom's weirder tangents.
