OK fine...no more Biden jokes.
What!?!?! it's not Bush's fault? Hell! When did we change dance partners?

I was kind of use to blaming Bush for everything. Now I have to switch. Bastards.

Just saw on the news that the school board caved and changed the policy for 1st graders and kindergarteners to a case by case basis. Kid can go back to school.

Yeah, he's already served his 5 day suspension and will be "counseled" on the seriousness of his crime, but no reform school. He can go back tomorrow, but his mom says she'll keep him home a day or two longer. Now they'll probably punish him for missing more time.

My son was 7 when he took his first knife to school. Memories...

seriously though, he WAS 7 and he took his grandfather's little swiss army knife to school - as 7 year-olds are won't to do. He got a 10 suspension with an expulsion hearing. this was back in, oh, '98.

He served the 10 days happy as a clam, loved every minute of it and taunted his cousins with, "Have fun in school, SUCKERS!" every morning.

He always enjoyed speech therapy class, too. Got him out of regular class. I think he purposely prolonged his lazy R's just so he could go to therapy.
