Teacher to "get off easy"?

This is the headline at timesunion.com
Teacher accused of repeated sex acts with student
If you’re like me, you said, “Oh another female teacher is having sex with a male student. Let’s go see what she looks like.”
Usually the women are quite attractive and the male is considered quite fortunate mostly by other males who [...]

American Idol Final Performance

Blake Lewis had a great performance with Bon Jovi’s “You give love a bad name.” It’s exactly what we like about him. His Maroon 5 song was pretty good but I liked the Maroon 5 song he sang the previous week better. The song, “This is my now”, that American Idol wrote for him [...]

According to an article in the Boston Globe, student researchers at Connecticut College (where my sister happened to attend college) say that you can now take up to 30 seconds to pick up food dropped on the floor and still safely [...]

American Idol Final 3 Results

Melinda deserved the title but this is probably the best thing that could have happened to her. Just like Chris Daughtry and Clay Aiken, the trick is to not be locked into a contract with Clive Davis who will probably ruin your career a la Justin, Reuben, Bo, Fantasia, Diana, Taylor, and Katharine by [...]

Big win for Oak Mountain Reds

Last night the Oak Mountain 9 year old Reds baseball team beat the Orioles 32-6 in just 2 innings. It was our best game of the year. The kids really deserved that one. We have been on the losing end of too many games this year. The Orioles were a good team [...]

8 things about me.

c.a. marks tagged me for a MEME to list 8 things about myself. I will participate but I can’t promise to tag 8 more people. It might take too much work to find 8 victims bloggers who wouldn’t be annoyed with me. Maybe I’ll just tag Michelle Malkin. I’m sure she’d [...]
