Friday--

We have read repeated articles about the low performance of American students on various tests trying to measure their skills. We have seen program after program implemented by the educational "experts" that haven't made much of a dent in the deficiencies. This article suggests the answer might be as simple as reinstating Latin and Greek instruction.

There is only one comment I can make on this: those F#%king Bastards!!! Can we get out the damned pitchforks now?? As one vulture said to another: f#$k patience. I want to kill something.

Some interesting thoughts on our health care system from Charles Hugh Smith at oftwominds.
