I wasn't too shocked or surprised to hear that it was teenagers who started the brush fires in Chesterfield this past week. I found it disgusting that a 62 year old man would poison the oaks on Toomer's corner. An attempt to destroy a tradition only leads me to believe that the individual must have some serious mental problems. But what really troubles me is the news report I saw last night on the CBS evening news. Doctors were handing out excuses to teachers who decided to call in sick. This would allow them to get paid for the days they missed while out protesting. These are the teachers who "deserve better treatment". Who's more despicable? The doctors or the teachers. I don't have enough information to know who's right in the whole Wisconsin matter. I know I can't trust what I've heard in the liberal or conservative media. This I do know, lying and dishonesty are not what children need modeled for them. Those traits come natural.
