About Me

My photo
I am a former IT professional that retired early to take on possibly the most terrifying, frustrating, amazingly rewarding job ever... being a Mom. My three unrepentant heathens keep me very busy and regularly force me to sharpen the wet noodle of my imagination in order to keep one shaky step ahead of them. In a given day I may be required to be the nemesis of Iron Man, a monster, a racetrack for assorted half-transformed transformers or the soundtrack to an epic battle between green army men and a penguin. It's nearly enough to drive you sane.

Masochism is Fun

For background noise as I puttered about the kitchen this morning I turned on fox news radio.. I should really know better by now. As I chopped celery for a roast chicken stock my ears caught ranting about the teachers' strike in Wisconsin. Am I the only one finding this rather retarded? While I agree that our nation's teachers get bent over without a reach around quite often, I do not see this as the answer. If they really want private sector pay, go to the private sector. And by all that is unholy, if you're going to strike, do it like you mean it. Don't get fake dr's notes while television news cameras are taping you! What kind of example are you setting here? To my mind all you are doing is telling kids that if they don't like a rule, you should quit doing your job and lie to get what you want.


More later, I'm going to go beat up some bread dough until I can think straight

Keep it clean please, if you can't make your point without childish namecalling then you don't really have a point to make.
