An Idea, a continuation of the previous post, regarding ....
Georgia Extending school hours by an additional two!

Instead Of Extending Hours, Here's an Idea!

I have a novel idea. Perhaps instead of the state of Georgia changing the teacher certification tests, the professional standards and the overall education system every time our children fail , or our teachers. Perhaps we should turn to a state with an above average success rate and follow their model.

Otherwise us southerners are going to look as much like short bus hillbilly's as the North already believes. Let's put down the rebel flags (FYI, not only is the South NOT going to rise again, well folks, it never rose, we lost the war. Fact even I got that much out of my Georgia history class)


I say we because I have essentially grown up in the South, however I did go to school in the North prior and honestly, I WAS in fact way further ahead of my classmates when I arrived. Have no fear my Georgia teachers put me well behind the learning curve.

Whew and luckily my Higher Southern Education didn't do much better. After all my Alma Mater is the Largest private educator of teachers in the state of Georgia. OUCH! They may want to keep that under their hat huh?
RENT TEXTBOOKS NOW!!
We are NOT less capable of learning when you pass the Mason Dixon line, so can someone in the Georgia Legislature PAY ATTENTION? Use a wee bit of common sense? Just Saying!

Why am I qualified to talk about this? Well perhaps I am not, but I have a Combination Education Undergraduate Degree. Mathematics, Science and Humanities (I was almost you kids teacher).
A graduate Degree, Masters, in Computer Science with an emphasis in security and I started another Masters degree that I hoped would end in a forensics Psychology Degree.
I need a vacation, don't you? This is depressing!

I taught a a Highly regarded (not by me, another story, another time) private University and I was an Administrator at the same University for years, Director of Admissions, when they broke up with me. I still think they owe me a refund. Any attorneys out there want to take on the case? Should be hilarious even if it isn't won, but honestly I think I make a GREAT Point.... again another story!

Valentine's Day!





The big V DAY (Valentine's Day) (and yes I still use the middle school joke VD and crack myself up!!) or for you singles out there Single Awareness Day, which disturbingly enough is referred to with he acronym SAD..... someone didn't think that through did they? Or is it a sick joke by a couple married for 3000 years?

I totally dig the Anti-Valentine's Party idea..... not because I am against love, simply i am against $300 bouquets of flowers that i will forget about and my favorite candy doesn't come in a heart. Not that I don't think couples should celebrate their love, they should but I think the more creativity involved the better.....

Which brings me to my gift...... for those that agree with the no flowers, I have enough jewelry, and really do I have to bite the ends off fifty chocolates before I get to one I like concepts of Valentine's holiday giving and aren't really creative, well there is a company out there for you!! Or for me and I am positive there are many more, but again this is my story about my gift....

Ahhh So happy I still got it...... Nothing more flattering.....

Ahhh So happy I still got it...... Nothing more flattering.....

So I get to pick up my daughter tonight back from college..... woot woot, nothing more exciting!!<---- that I really mean I miss her soooooo much!! She chooses to meet me at the Varsity (She lost her keys and hitched a ride with a college friend, a whole different story) yes the Downtown Atlanta Varsity..... the one with lots of parking and plenty of homeless dudes.......

So I am approached, as we are gathering her things and putting them in my car, by a man who "just wants something to eat"...... well of course I never finish anything I order, and had a WHOLE order of Onion rings and a chili cheese steak that had NOT been touched..... I said "Here I have food" He says (and I kind you not he really said this..) "What do you have??" Really ??? I mean if I was begging for food I would not be picky.... I would be grateful...... yea yea you know.... he wanted money...

Who has money these days?? I am waititng for the day when I tell them I don't have any cash and they pull out a keypad and ask me for my pin....

Ok So I tell him I don't have any cash .... he says Anything, change".... Ok so I dig in the cup holder for about thirty- five cents..... as I do this... OH YES this totally happened.... he says....

"Hey Shorty those your kids??? You gotcha yo self a fine a@@ mmmm hmmm. " Sho don't look like a sexy woman...... "I'm not even going to continue with the banter that I so politely tried to ignore!!

Really?? Did the guy asking me for change j and my leftovers just try to get with me??? Hmmmm so is our first date a dumpster dive?? And when I sleep over do I bring my own box or will he share his????????

So at forty I at the very least know that I have still GOT IT.... at the very least with the man on the corner.... See ladies there is no reason to stay in that relationship...... there is a new man on every corner... Literally, just bring a cheeseburger and some spare change....

Hey Shorty you look so good to me!!
