Wow. I just reading this article (thanks to COD for the link), and I am floored by how true it is, whether it was meant to be or not. Funny? Not to me. In my opinion, send a child off to school is like sentencing him to 13 year jail sentence, complete with brainwashing.

I haven’t blogged for quite awhile. I want to say that I’ve been really busy, but that’s not really the whole picture. Yes, I’ve been a bit more busy. Arp is working all the time on the web design business, at least on his days off from the main job, so I’ve been with the kids 24/7. No breaks for blogging.
