I meant to say government for they. ~~ sheesh ~~ It's past my nap time. :) It's ok. We make certain exceptions for the elderly. As you damn well should dang gummit. Why back in my day... |

My kid and a friend who is a Mormon in the class and is scared to death to say anything in the class.. this is way more dangerous than a moment of silence. This teacher may soon be on the news as a couple of the kids are sick of it and may just take some cell phone footage....;) |
