My work web page

So I'm making a web page for my job - teacher. I'm looking for some ideas on what to include in my about Ms. Smith section. Any ideas?

I can't sit back and pretend any more

I admit I've been watching Glenn Beck.

I've been avoiding the media for about three years now, because I can't stand watching it and watching my country go down the tubes. I miss the America I believe in, the America of hard work and reaping what you put into it, Americans who don't expect or demand that the government fix everything. I'm tired of Senators and Representatives getting away with things that the rest of us couldn't. I'm tired of special interests getting all the breaks, deals, and money that comes from my taxes. I'm tired of watching our government bow down to the rest of the world and turn our backs on true allied in the name of some world order. I don't want to let the government that can't manage any other social program control my health care. I want to keep the constitution - the way it is.

I decided that I couldn't avoid it forever and started forcing myself to watch the news - just a little at a time. Then one day I was sewing and turned on Fox News. It happened to be the Glenn Beck show and what he said made sense to me - We need to ask reasonable questions - that we have a responsibility to question our government. I didn't go out to a rally or anything (though I'm thinking about it), but I'm much more conscious about what the government is doing and how I don't want to become a socialist country. One thing I like about Glenn Beck is that he places the blame on both parties and it's not what's best for him or a political party but for the country and what's right and our freedoms.

Then I watched a piece on the Fox News Channel about the Dust Bowl being created in California in order to save a two inch fish. Since I taught in the northern end of the Central Valley of California and loved driving through the fields, it pains me to think of the students, farmers, workers that are out of work, losing their farms because a fish, we can't eat is more important than families, the cost of food, and the possibility of being dependent on foreign countries for food. And the state government can't do anything about it - this is the Federal Government's doing.

Do something different - write your senator, email your representative when you are unhappy with what they or their colleagues are doing. They work for us, not anyone else.

Love, Love Me Do

What comes out at Midnight - - - - - - - -

Beatles Rock Band.....

Did I pre-order? you bet. If I didn't have to work tomorrow I'd pick it up at Midnight! But I know what I'm doing after work tomorrow! I'll be singing Beatles all night1

First Day of School

I totally forgot to take my first day of school picture. We have a lot of Freshman (more than the school was built for), but things went pretty smoothly. Aside from a talkative class or two things went pretty well. We'll see how day 2 goes!
