'Nation's Report Card' Shows Improvement from the Washington Post

Maybe this is from local / world news, but it has to do with education, so here it goes. I don’t really know how to interpret this article, but it seams that the writer is surprised. Why the heck is he surprised? We should be jumping for joy even if the scores went up a half a percent! We improved from two years ago, and if we keep that up, well be pumping out more Albert Einstein’s than french fries at McDonalds. I think that these numbers are pretty good. I mean you have to take into account that some students don’t take the test, and if the numbers are on the slow decline, so what, at least they aren’t getting smaller. If we keep this up, America will be headed into a good and great future in math& science as well as politics and economy.

Boulder students protest "God" in pledge on Denver Post

I have had enough with people and being politically correct. Why is there a story about a religion almost every month? People just need to suck it up and take it. The constitution states that we can believe and practice any religion we want to, and I respect that. But do these people know that the declaration was written with that Bible in hand. The founding fathers referred to the book more than any other reference. Every single founding father was Christian and based it off of that every one is entitled to their opinion and God is the savior. That is why the pledge refers to Him. I’m sure that 99% of America respects our founding fathers, but why do they have to worry only about them selves and not what the majority of America believes. This also brings up a subject that I don’t understand. Why do people, who oppose any thing to do with God and everything being politically correct, celebrate Christmas? The meaning of Christmas is to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. But they just seem to be wrapped around the present idea. Why don’t they celebrate nothing in May just the same as in winter. Then they wouldn’t have to call it Christmas and they could follow their “politically correct” ways. I hate hypocrites.

I watched the “Did you know” 1+2 last night on the Fischbowl, and I thought they were awesome. I thought all the facts were very intriguing and I showed my mom and she thought it was amazing too. All the facts about China and India were interesting. I didn’t think that their population was that much different. The size of the country to population ratio compared to the U.S. is ridicules. Everyone would be horrified with the government if it got that much out of control. China is barely bigger than us and has at least twice the people. There are also many more things that are interesting, such as the myspace visits or the text messaging stat. It is all to much to comprehend at one time, but it is all worth knowing.

This has to be the funniest thing I have ever read in a newspaper article, even though it was online. This guy is found at a bus stop and has a Fu Manchu mustache, in a full suit of armor and an Aladdin style sword covered in blood. People got scared and called the cops, once they caught the man they questioned him, like “Why do you have a sword?” and “What are you doing?” The answer could not be any more random or stupid. He was on his way to a video game convention! Isn’t that the funniest thing you have ever herd, the sward was made of wood as well. They just let him of with nothing because he didn’t even do anything.
You have to admit, that is the lamest yet hilarious thing you have ever read. A guy with a Fu Manchu mustache on his face is awesome. That makes the story funny enough. Then you top it off with the same man wearing a full suit of armor, a bloody wooden Arabian sward, and he was headed to a video game convention. What a dork, If I were on the scene, I wouldn’t call the cops, I would ask him how long it took him to grow in the mustache.
