Good morning class. Some new words have been added/updated in the Glossary. Be sure to check it out so you can understand the rest of the lectures. THE BOY got to eat lunch and his snack yesterday at school so that was a good thing. The bad news is his teacher has informed him that if he does not let her be in charge, she’s going to have to lay the smack down on him. Good for her. It’s about time that a teacher wanted to be in charge of her classroom.
Lots to do today at the office so let’s dive right into the news.
- Dunkin’ Donuts is out to take down Starbucks , and I’m glad to see it. They have better coffee and are not as hung up on themselves. But Starbucks does have cooler homeless people.
- My favortie team won last night. My favorite team lost last night. I’m so torn when the Cards and Nats play. Maybe I need more therapy sessions on this issue.
- Tell me it’s not so. Paris Hilton drunk behind the wheel? Whatever will Butter’s parents think of her now? Maybe she’ll have to wear a bear costume while she’s doing her community service time. That would be cool.
- Young people steal music via LimeWire, old people buy it in the stores. Proof of that is Bob Dylan hitting the top of the charts again this week. The big question is who is going to teach Gramps how to get that CD inside his new Nano?
- When the median income is over $92 Grand, it makes sense that you need some guidelines to keep the riff-raff out.
- More cops equals less crime. Man, that’s an original thought. Glad to see that it plays out that way in real life.
- I’m still pissed about the Tyson’s tunnel getting scraped. But if they are going to make the extension out to Dulles then Metro damn sure needs to add cars to the Orange line. The afternoon congestion is going to be a living hell on the Orange line once the extension is completed. Maybe now is the time to consider making the tunnel under the Potomac larger to handle more trains?
That’s a starting point for the day. Enjoy.
