...they're going to be shut down, due to rules. That way, they go back to Faux news and complain how they were "unjustly" cut off. Weak tactic 'cause they got nothing else.

others, who are not so cerebral, will side with the bullies and screamers, though. We seem to be living in an age where 40% of the country sides with that not-so-cerebral group, unfortunately.

by Schiff. He kept interrupting and acting like a pure jackass. Schiff kept his cool and Jordan kept acting like a fool. When he finally realized that Schiff wouldn’t recognize him (per the rules), he yanked his glasses off, tossed them on the table and petulantly harrumphed, “Geeze!” He looked like a 2nd grader who didn’t get chosen to erase the blackboards. (Gave my age away there!)

I only had them in elementary grades (1-6), after that it was early projectors with the teacher writing on slides with a grease pencil.

I do remember the white chalk blackboards though, it was great to get two erasers and find some kid that had ticked you off, call his name and slam the erasers together near him. We didn't bully eachother, but paybacks were pretty brutal.

I remember when some kid got me with that old fashioned liquid glue that we used in grade school. He somehow got to my bottle of glue, loosened the cap just enough for me not to notice. Then I put the bottle back into my jeans pocket and it opened up. By the time I noticed, my jeans were soaked. I had to spend the whole day at school with my pants sticking to my ass everytime that I sat down. Fortunately the stuff didn't cause permanent damage and washed out of stuff.
