About Me
- Law and Order Teacher
- I am a retired police officer. In an inexplicable moment of madness I then became a high school history teacher in 2002. As I navigate through daily life I am keenly aware that my generation owes the country an apology for the 1960s. Although I was not an active participant, on behalf of all the burned out hippies that are leading most of our institutions of higher learning, I'm sorry!

Wonderful.
Have a good reunion.
That's why YOU, NOW, in your current JOB, are so imPORtant to our nation. It is YOU who must empty the kids' heads of sand and pour in measures of logic, common sense, history, rationality, proportion.

Hey, hope you're having a great night! Watching Oscars right now, with my family!
Excellent and I agree with every word.
Brooke,
Thank you.
BZ,
I try everyday. History is like a religion to me. We are what we are and the the good, the bad, and the ugly are all part. America is a great country and I tell the students that.
Dr.D,
Thanks for the visit. You are one of my role models.
MMA,
Thanks for the visit. I agree too. It's amazing that two guys on the opposite end of the political spectrum are both patriotic.
I hope your reunion was wonderful and hope you write about it.
You know the Celtic Women aren't my favorite, but, in your honor, I listened to the whole thing...well, ALMOST :-)
but, of course, it feels SO GOOD to hear a song celebrating America!
It'd be nice to hear Americans singing those tunes again, huh?
If you could have heard my preschoolers singing "And I'm Proud to be an American", I swear you'd have cried, too!
God bless, L&O..xxx
Z,
I didn't make it to the reunion. I got some kind of bug and it knocked me on my butt for the last week. I went to school and came home and collapsed. I really missed being there but at least today I feel somewhat human. Sheesh. Thanks.
Missed you last Saturday Steve, but we partied just the same. Wife and I went to "Wicked" the Musical, and the 45 or so of us had a grand weekend at The Hope and Museum. Hope you got to stop by the blog for the photos and stories.
Oh, L&0, I am SO SORRY you missed the reunion but glad you're feeling better.
At my place, did you mean you filled out everything BUT race, by the way? :-)
Blessings to you, my friend..
Z,
I filled out the info on my driver's license. Nothing more. Thanks for the visit.
thanks, Law and Order. Good advice.
I have a police post on Thursday morning..I'd like your honest input, my friend.
Thanks so much.
AND, I'd like another BLOG POST....how dare you let your life interfere with YOUR READERS' Pleasure? :-)
Blessings! xxx Z
L&0, I just decided to delay the police post...till maybe Thurs afternoon...
I'll try to let you know when it's up, I'd really honor and appreciate your input.xx
