Au Contraire, Oh Big little man with arms the size of twigs, I seem to remember you posting that you bench press 450 lbs, and run 6 miles a day with 50 lbs of rocks or whatever in your backpack. No? I wish I lived near you, I would bring my dog over just to let him take a dump on that postage stamp sized lot of yours (I swear he craps on command!) while you hid inside your house wishing you we're man enough to come out and do something about it. I guess we both have fantasies, too bad mine are closer to reality than yours. 450lbs indeed! Keep it up Dom Deluoise. UD You never saw me make any of the claims you mentioned above. If you disagree, go find them. Good luck. |

My daughter (a real brain, straight A's always) is in middle school, taking advance courses. She is taking a freshman level algebra course. The teacher seems to act like she's in competition (you know, popularity-wise) with some of the kids. It's actually kind of sad.

And I think it's because she's so well rounded, and perhaps the teacher is not! The teacher marked a time/ distance problem wrong, my daughter knew it was right, she showed me, it was right, so she asked the teacher to review it. The teacher said no, I marked it wrong, so it's wrong. That didn't sit well with my kid, nor me. Off to school we go! We sat with the Asst. principal, and the teacher. I simply asked the teacher, "Can you please show me where this answer is wrong". It was shown with all work, as a good algebra student will do. Her answer was that part of it must have been erased to make it correct. I told her to never, ever accuse my daughter of cheating without some proof of such. After she left, the asst. principal assured me that this wasn't over, but who knows. |

At the same time, I teach my kids that school is like your job. You are going to have bosses and such that will be a problem, you must still give them what they expect, that's your job. I have always used that analagy to teach my kids to deal with teachers they have issues with. Read, a teacher not liking you is no excuse... I am not suggesting that your kids are using it as one or that you would accept it either, just saying how I deal with that problem in school, or nightclass, or sports... or life;) |

Are you really this simple minded? I didn't say that all documentries have a political focus, did I? You can be sure the Jazz documentary expressed a definite viewpoint on the subject, and probably parts of it DID convey a political viewpoint, as segregation was a political issue in addition to a moral one. I'm reminded at the moment of someone in another newsgroup who said he doesn't read books. He gave several reasons for this, the goofiest of which was that "All authors are biased." So, he's gone all his life without reading books. I'm not saying you're like that (books), just addressing the unavoidable issue of a biased viewpoint. |

Just wanted you to be aware that it might not be quite the same story you heard in school, or any other accounts you may have read, heard or seen. Gosharoonie, I've read at least two dozen major tomes on the Civil War, and all of them differed from each other in small or significant ways in describing many of the same events. Burns' "Civil War" was much more a relating of the personal and anecdotal than a comprehensive retelling of the orders of battle and the politics. That's what made it so compelling to so many people. I see Herring is still insulting me, poor, old, worn-out p.o.s. that he is. |

As long as daddy's right behind him. -- John H Whatever you say, John. However, you should contemplate your odd need to toss 7th grade responses at people because you think it helps you "win". When your wife returns from her "tennis lesson", ask her about your odd behavior. Krausish. -- John H Another 7th grade response! Stop obsessing about Krause. Doug, you're the one who finds his style so worthy of emulation. -- John H Only in your imagination, John. I'll make you a deal: Try turning off your television for one week, and see if that helps you come up with responses that are worthy of an adult. Something's turning your brains to oatmeal. TV? Old age? Lack of use? Can't do that. I just checked out all the Ken Burns "Civil War" series. They're due back in 7 days. Sorry. You are getting the responses you deserve. Actually, much more than you deserve. Ken Burns? He's to the left of Michael Moore. Really. Well, if the "Civil War" makes a liberal of me, so be it. Just wanted you to be aware that it might not be quite the same story you heard in school, or any other accounts you may have read, heard or seen. I've no problem with seeing more than one side of an event. Read a few books about the French Revolution. It's a wonder the same event can be seen so differently by historians. -- John H |

Is he still obsessed with me? Good, now you both go find a quiet little room and play with each other for a while. -- John H |
