Re: OK.
More compelling evidence that public education doesn't work. |

Homeschooling your kids produces people with higher comprehension skills. |

Jesus guys, he was just trying to be funny (failed). Not have his paper graded. Getting back to the topic, I can just see it, "Gas line explodes! Thousands without internet service!" |

said by lesopp  :Nice article. I remember last year seeing High School seniors protesting because they didn't graduate. They didn't graduate because they failed to pass the FCAT (Florida Comprehensive Achievement Test). Several of the protesters carried signs with inaccurate spelling and incorrect word usage. The silliest one had used the phrase "Gov Busch" instead of "Gov Bush". Education in this state is a joke. More and more money seems to go to administration as opposed to student instruction and it shows. Even worse, I have seen striking teachers carrying signs with misspelled words. A lot of kids will be having rather bleak futures because so many people think throwing more money into the government schools will solve all the problems. My real estate taxes have been going up by double digits for years; I live in Fairfax County, Va. More than half of our taxes go for government schools which are hiring administrators at a much faster rate than teachers. |

said by lesopp :Are you referring to excess gas in the digestive tract (flatulence) or whipping oneself as a means of arousing or heightening sexual feeling (flagellation). The word flagulation does not exist. Government schools are likely the source of his confusion!
