Big Ol' Smitty

It'd be nice if other people in the US gave enough of a shit about something to hit the streets peacefully like this. Pretty amazing.

Ah hell yeah, the woodgrain Topps and the coveted Donruss "Rated Rookie" card. A Rickey Henderson baseball card is the only thing I've ever stolen.

Allow me to be liberal for a minute. I have been working in a predominantly minority, low income public high school for the past several months now. The school has all sorts of problems, tests scores not least among them, but one of the things that has really bothered me is the food that they are serving to these kids. Most of the kids in the school are on free or reduced lunch. These kids are eating absolute shit every day. Fries covered with cheese and chili with a slice of Papa John's pizza on the side is not an acceptable lunch for a growing teenager. The government should be ashamed of what it is doing to the health of the nation's youth. We are setting these kids up for an unhealthy life of diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, obesity, and heart problems. I am currently interviewing for a job at a somewhat elite private high school also and I toured the building the other day. Their cafeteria, of course, had a lovely salad bar and a nice assortment of fresh fruits. http://www.motherjones.com/news/feature/20.../ma_207_01.html We are basing what we feed to our children on fucking LOBBYING. I found this quote particularly humorous, as many of the kids at my school eat pizza and fries everyday. Here is what I would do about this. Feel free to challenge my proposals or make your own. 1. Ban soda and snack machines from public schools. Only healthy snacks, juices, or sports drinks. 2. The schools will no longer be a dumping ground for surplus beef and cheese. If we want all of our students to do well and succeed academically (No Child Left Behind, baby!), then they need proper nutrition. 3. Ban trans fats and high fructose corn syrup from the school cafeteria. 4. No more lazy-ass football coach gym teachers. Gym class should be mandatory and vigorous.

Somebody switch on the Mole Signal.

Can I change my vote to Super Nintendo Chalmers?

You're misinterpreting the graph, I think. The "Democrats" line represents the trends in income growth under Democratic presidents for the various percentiles and vice versa. What the graph shows is that every income group has grown substantially under Democratic presidencies, while only the higher income groups have grown significantly under Republican presidencies (over the past 50 yrs). High income groups have done just as well under Democrats, but the lower income groups don't fare as well under Republicans.

I voted bear, btw.

About 14 people killed by bears in North America alone in 2005. Bears seem to have the slight edge as far as sheer quantity of dead humans goes.

9 people killed by sharks worldwide in 2004.

Vyce is a good poster--just kind of a jerk sometimes. fanofcoils seems to be making a run for this title, though.

You think that's impressive? Check this out! This is based on the last 50 years of Presidents.

Furthermore, The Stranger by Albert Camus was a blatant clone of The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. They both had guys in them that did stuff.

I just put a job application in the other day to teach at a Catholic High School. The application asked for my religion. I wanted to be honest, so I listed "agnostic". The school secretary gave me a very odd look when I gave her the application.
