TIME PASSES SOOOOOOOO——FAST!
 

 
For all of you who remember being there.... 
      and for those of you who are too young and weren't there - 
               but sometimes wish you had been....  

      
    
    
    
  
Remember the words from the  song.... 

"Where have all the flowers gone?
....long time passing.... "
 
 

 
Have you ever wondered what happened

to all those really cute and crazy, good looking, barefoot, young hippie chicks  

 
who didn't wear bras, did drugs, smoked weed, got tattooed 

and shagged every guy they met during that great Age of Aquarius back in the 60s?  


Well,  wonder no more!
 

 
 
 
Kinda gets you tingly all over, doesn't it?

I do not know if this is true but I wish all schools in USA start implementing this approach. 
 

 
Listen to the young people, F-this, F-that, and nary anyone will step up and correct them- even with wife and kids in tow!


FINALLY - - Someone in the teaching profession had the courage to set the standards so badly needed NOW.

New high school principal

We watched high school principal Dennis Prager of Colorado , along with Sara Palin and Tom Brokaw on TV a couple of weeks ago....what a dynamic, down to earth speaker. Even though Palin and Brokaw were also guest speakers they did little but nod and agree with him. This is the guy that should be running for President in 2016!

A Speech Every American High School Principal Should Give. ( By Dennis Prager.)

To the students and faculty of our high school:

I am your new principal, and honored to be so.  There is no greater calling than to teach young people.

I would like to apprise you of some important changes coming to our school. I am making these changes because I am convinced that most of the  ideas that have dominated public education in America have worked against you, against your teachers and against our country.

First , this school will no longer honor race or ethnicity. I could not care less if your racial makeup is black, brown, red, yellow or white. I could not care less if your origins are African, Latin American, Asian or European, or if your ancestors arrived here on the Mayflower or on slave ships. The only identity I care about, the only one this school will recognize, is your individual identity -- your character, your scholarship, your humanity. And the only national identity this school will care about is American.

This is an American public school, and American public schools were created to make better Americans. If you wish to affirm an ethnic, racial or religious identity through school, you will have to go elsewhere. We will end all ethnicity, race and non-American nationality-based celebrations. They undermine the motto of America , one of its three central values -- E pluribus unum, "from many, one." And this school will be guided by America 's values. This includes all after-school clubs. I will not authorize clubs that divide students based on any identities. This includes race, language, religion, sexual orientation or whatever else may become in vogue in a society divided by political correctness.

Your clubs will be based on interests and passions, not blood, ethnic, racial or other physically defined ties. Those clubs just cultivate narcissism -- an unhealthy preoccupation with the self -- while the purpose of education is to get you to think beyond yourself. So we will have clubs that transport you to the wonders and glories of art, music, astronomy, languages you do not already speak, carpentry and more. If the only extracurricular activities you can imagine being interested in are those based on ethnic, racial or sexual identity, that means that little outside of yourself really interests you.

Second , I am uninterested in whether English is your native language. My only interest in terms of language is that you leave this school speaking and writing English as fluently as possible. The English language has united America 's citizens for over 200 years, and it will unite us at this school. It is one of the indispensable reasons this country of immigrants has always come to be one country. And if you leave this school without excellent English language skills, I would be remiss in my duty to ensure that you will be prepared to successfully compete in the American job market. We will learn other languages here -- it is deplorable that most Americans only speak English -- but if you want classes taught in your native language rather than in English, this is not your school.

Third , because I regard learning as a sacred endeavor , everything in this school will reflect learning's elevated status. This means, among other things, that you and your teachers will dress accordingly. Many people in our society dress more formally for Hollywood events than for church or school. These people have their priorities backward. Therefore, there will be a formal dress code at this school.

Fourth , no obscene language will be tolerated anywhere on this school's property -- whether in class, in the hallways or at athletic events. If you can't speak without using the f-word, you can't speak. By obscene language I mean the words banned by the Federal Communications Commission, plus epithets such as "Nigger," even when used by one black student to address another black, or "bitch," even when addressed by a girl to a girlfriend. It is my intent that by the time you leave this school, you will be among the few your age to instinctively distinguish between the elevated and the degraded, the holy and the obscene.

Fifth , we will end all self-esteem programs. In this school, self-esteem will be attained in only one way -- the way people attained it until decided otherwise a generation ago -- by earning it. One immediate consequence is that there will be one valedictorian, not eight.

Sixth , and last, I am reorienting the school toward academics and away from politics and propaganda. No more time will be devoted to scaring you about smoking and caffeine, or terrifying you about sexual harassment or global warming. No more semesters will be devoted to condom wearing and teaching you to regard sexual relations as only or primarily a health issue... There will be no more attempts to convince you that you are a victim because you are not white, or not male, or not heterosexual or not Christian. We will have failed if any one of you graduates this school and does not consider him or herself inordinately fortunate -- to be alive and to be an American.

Now, please stand and join me in the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag of our country. As many of you do not know the words, your teachers will hand them out to you.

True Friendship...
   -------------------

Are ye tired of those  weak 'friendship' poems that always sound good, but never actually come close to reality? Well, here are a series of promises that actually speak of true friendship...
You will see no cute wee smiley faces on this card. Just the stone cold truth of a great friendship.

1...  When ye are sad -- I will help ye get drunk and plot revenge against the bastard who made ye sad.

2... When ye are blue -- I will try to dislodge whatever is choking ye.

3... When ye smile -- I will know ye are thinking of something that I would probably want to be involved in.

4... When ye are scared -- I will shake the piss out of ye every chance I get, until you're NOT.

5... When ye are worried -- I will tell ye stories about how much worse it could be until YE STOP YER WHINING!

6... When yer confused -- I will try to use only wee words. 

7... When ye are sick -- Stay tae hell away from me until ye are well again. I dinna want whatever ye've got.

8... When ye fall, I will laugh me head off at you, you clumsy arse, .......but I'll help you up.

9... This is my oath .... I pledge it to the end. 'Why?' you may ask; Because ... you are my friend. 

Friendship is like peein' in your pants, everyone can see it but only you can feel the true warmth...

Send this to ten o' yer closest friends,  then get depressed because ye can only think of four.

Thought you might enjoy seeing your first car ad.  This is really cool.
Find your first car or the one you drove to high school or college; hopefully your car brochure is available.
This has to be one of the neatest web sites whether you have gasoline in your veins or not.
This is a website featuring the original factory brochures for nearly every American car you have ever owned.
Pick the manufacturer, the year and the model.
