Participant[quote=Hobie]Math>Reading>Writing>US/World History>Art/Music>Home Ec,Woodshop,Life skills( balance checkbook, resume, etc) all should be in front taking time for gay history. Once the test scores are up and we are turning out sharp kids, we can discuss adding esoteric topics to the curricula. [/quote]
I don’t think an entire month should be devoted to it (I really don’t think women’s history or black history should get their 1 month a year either), but it is certainly reasonable to integrate it into your US/World History component above. These areas are so LACKING from my 1970s public school education, my next example requires me to consult wikipedia to flesh it out (which I won’t do due to time constraints).
So here goes: when covering the revolutionary war in US History, for example, we discuss George Washington and the generals. Is it so much trouble to include a few paragraphs on the regimen of freed slaves that contributed to the winning of that war? And when the realization of our manifest destiny is covered, it’s reasonable to include a chapter or subchapter on the contributions of Chinese-Americans to the railroad effort and the place of the gay community in “settling” San Francisco. Art History can include Georgia O’Keefe and what some consider to be the inspiration for her work. English or World History can include information on Sappho (or was it Lesbos–again, my education was lacking.)
See–concise and relevant to core topics. I don’t think they are advocating for diagrams or anything….

Too bad there isn’t one. Unlike the Carter Presidency, there doesn’t appear to be a Ronald Reagan waiting in the wings.If the GOP wishes to even appear serious about 2012, then they need to get their house in order and build a credible platform with a credible candidate and distance themselves from the lunatic element, like Trump and Palin.[/quote]
Romney is quite credible and even electable.[/quote]
Maybe if he tones down the fake tan.
On second thought, not even then.

Participant[quote=CONCHO]The more you get people talking about stuff that doesn’t matter, the less time they have to talk about things that do matter. It’s elementary! Control 101.[/quote]
Yup. Smoke and mirrors to keep us from seeing what is really wrong.

Participant[quote=north park girl]Now it appears the owner has put her phone number in the listing as a contact number, so she is now receiving numerous calls about the property. [/quote]
This part is not only evil but stupid!
On top of the quiet enjoyment, your friend might also have some privacy claims if her personal number is being published without your consent on the listings…it’s a stretch but why not throw it in there just to rattle the cage some more.
(Not to mention that it’s an incredibly rude thing to do! I suppose she could just screen calls and obviously never call those folks back!!! heh heh.)
