Fairly Conservative

Well, made the move last week for three of my classes to some of the brand new renovated classrooms at East from my previous ones, which are now under construction.
So, how are they? Well, to start, for my English class, I have been relocated to the new room 122. I call it the Weird Room. [...]

So why all this talk of recession? It’s an election year. The “R” word is often used to signal to the American voter that change is demanded. Who benefits from change this November? Democrats.

Good morning. There’s lots I’d like to discuss.
First, we did it. Yesterday bested an old hit high and turned in 1,023 unique visits and 2,595 page loads. It’s pretty exciting to meet one of the goals I set for the blog less than three months after it started.

“Why do you think they would put something as preposterous and air conditioning the gyms in there? The answer is because all of these things are inflated!”
