This morning, I'm having coffee and talking to my daughter. She is telling me that at recess some kids were really into making their own Pokemon cards at recess. I was reminiscing that when I was in third grade, we were really into making paper airplanes and flying them at recess. Without missing a beat she says "Paper airplanes are banned at our school" I couldnt even react.....

My best friend is a teacher at Mansfield and I mentioned that there is little chance that I'll put my kids into a public schools system. He gets pissed off and tells me it's an attack on his job. I tell him that it's my choice based on a corrupt system that isn't designed to benefit the students the most. Then, in the next breath, he's telling me about how the teachers that have been there for a while just don't give a damn.
This is just one more thing to point to.

You moving to Cambridge? I can't imagine how you work there every day. That place is literally the earthy-crunchy, pretentious, socialist-minded capital of New England.
