I ran across this article yesterday on a gaming forum I read. That’s a very good post detailing the problems with our schools today. It goes into two possible outcomes, including the whole “big brother” superstition. I’m not too following on that part, but I do agree there’s a serious issue here that many parents and school officials are completely blind to.
My side is school should be made optional, and tests reflect more on the student and less on the school itself. Similar to the Japanese school system where there is literally competition to get into a good public school as early elementary school. That’s just my views on things. The school system, from what I’m seeing, is getting so bad, if I ever have kids, I would seriously consider home schooling them.
ID badges, metal detectors, surveillance videos, kids getting arrested for slapping girl’s butts, kids arrested for violating dress code. Our school system has gone to trash and the parents (as a whole) and school officials are letting it happen! It’s a sad state we live in.
So, next time your school votes to add things like ID badges with RFID tags, add cameras to “catch” criminals or require students to use only transparent/see through backpacks/bags, take a queue from D.A.R.E . — Just say No!

Camy HERO PACK, the ultimate add-on package for any Legend of Zelda enthusiast. This is so cool; if I had a Wii, I would put this on pre-order right away. But alas, the Wiis are still a thing of the future as every local store is still sold out.

I’ve never been a big political guy, at least not until our current president screwed everything up ( including admitting Iraq has nothing to do with 9/11 ).
This year has changed. While I still don’t keep a close tabs on everything, I do keep an eye overview of the current presidential candidates. I’ve watched Clinton, Osama and Edwards, the top three democratic candidates. None of them pleased me. Each one of them don’t seem to be speaking naturally but more from a political perspective. Sometimes, they’ll speak from what they truly believe in, but many times it feels more like fluff than anything else.
On other side of the fence, you have a bunch of crappy candidates. I wouldn’t have even bothered continuing to keep on eye on them if it wasn’t for one person in particular: Ron Paul.
I don’t know what it is about him; he speaks the truth; you can tell he means it; he doesn’t falter; and he’s done an excellent job in all the interviews standing his ground. I agree with everything he said, including one most important subject: reinstating the constitution.
I just came across, yet another, interview with Ron Paul on Fox News — Fox is known to be so far left winged, they tend to bury these stories. Some people in the comments talked about things were worded against him, but I guess I don’t view politics enough to see this. It seems pretty reasonable to me. As Ron Paul said, Just come home.
