It didn’t pass the “global test”

New Jersey Middle School teacher allegedly gets suspended after posting a picture of President Bush on classroom wall next to all the other US presidents. School officials deny charges that her classroom keys were confiscated by the vice-principal. Three parents complained to school officials that Senator Kerry did not get “equal time” in the education of US presidents.

In other news, I just re-watched Max Max, the 1979 Mel Gibson film about the “near future”. It is not as good as the first time I watched it. Nor it is as good as the sequel.

Right now I am watching This is Spinal Tap. Unlike Mad Max, it is enduring the test of time, by my standards. Those standards are, clearly, very low for post-work-goof-off-and-surf-the-internet-in-the-afternoon-before-class-because-I-got-this-”film”-from-Netflix-over-the-weekend. I have several sets of standards. My standards are very user-friendly, especially since I am the user. No, I am not post-modern. I am not because I said so.

While pictures of President Bush do not pass the “global test”, This is Spinal Tap does.

Madness!

    Freaking UNBELIVEABLE.

    Liberal lunatics are the craziest people on Earth. True, conservative lunatics are more personally dangerous (because they have guns), but lib crazies are more harmful to society (because there are more of them).

    True Madness.
