Random rants

Last year sometime, I posted this comment on Facebook, "racism exists mostly in the media."
Talk about a hot button! I still believe that's true. Oh, and look!!!! Here is an article about just such a thing!!!

Umm, yeah. Pay attention people.

This is an article I just read the other day because someone brought it up...It's all about the cost of school supplies these days. I was just flabbergasted at how much teachers spend, of the own money!! Oh, and that students use an average of 45 pencils a year. Seriously? Are they eating them? dang.

I remember when we had 2 in high-school at the same time. I hated August. It was more expensive than Christmas! Book fees, lab fees, parking, pictures, yearbooks, class rings, equipment...good grief! And that was 16/17 YEARS ago! Now there's even more! It's just crazy.

And last...tomorrow is the FIRST DAY OF AUGUST! sigh. I sear it was just June.
