St. Paul Public Schools Bans Holidays UnAssociated Press January 29, 2016 In order to make children from diverse backgrounds feel more welcome, St. Paul Public Schools plans to ban "dominant" holidays ; that are enjoyed by the majority of children throughout the United States. Such horrid traditions as celebrating Valentine's Day, Halloween and Thanksgiving, will no longer be tolerated in the spirit of making everyone feel equally left-out. "How can we celebrate the pilgrims feasting and eating turkey with the indigenous Americans, when it might be upsetting to an immigrant from another country?” said one school administrator. “We just can't assume that a holiday like Thanksgiving could have a wide appeal and be a truly secular American celebration!" Already plans are in the works to eliminate Independence Day, Christmas, New Years and any other "dominant" holiday that might not be celebrated by people arriving here from other parts of the world....

Trump Wins Debate UnAssociated Press January 29, 2016 Though Donald Trump was not at the GOP Presidential debate yesterday , he still won! Undeniably, Mr. Trump sounded smarter and more likeable when he wasn't there; than if he had attended. Furthermore, it should be (but isn't) plain to everyone that if Trump is faced with unpleasant people or situations as President, he will likely just skip the debate or conference and have his own by himself. This will be a good strategy for America—and will show the rest of the world how cooperative the USA is. It seems that no matter what Trump does, there are enough angry right-wing conservatives to prove that he is always right! Hopefully, Donald Trump will miss more events—as it can only serve to increase his popularity when he is absent!

Donald Trump will not be participating in the GOP Presidential debate on Fox News tomorrow night . Even though Fox TV is the most conservative venue, it seems that Trump does not like Megyn Kelly . Since Kelly will be one of the moderators, Trump is going to take his toys and go home! Good for you Mr. Trump! Now we know how you will handle uncomfortable situations that might come up if you become President!

Outside the window, the snow is flying sideways. On the Internet, the weather report says that there is a 20% chance of snow. The fact that it is snowing quite a lot right now leads me to believe the chance is actually far greater than that. But the good news is that if the snow is flying sideways, there should be no accumulation right? It should just blow away!

I've actually been pretty busy in my job. But I have gotten pretty good at it so I can do it pretty fast. Therefore I can keep up with the current workload and do some other projects. Still, the manager had to throw another rewrite of some documentation at me today—with the (highly motivating) comment that I'm "not that busy right now." It made my blood boil. I said to look at "sent" mail instead of incoming to gauge the activity level. It seems that if I work fast and keep the customers satisfied, it translates into "not that busy" to someone who looks only at the number of unfinished requests. So should I work more slowly then? MONDAY UPDATE: I just finished Friday's work. I haven’t started the stuff that came in over the weekend. I’m going to have lunch first since I’m really "not that busy." I might be able to start on today’s work this afternoon. It’s great being appreciated. Updated Update: Apparently we have an office tattle...

Why wait for the snow if you can close now!!! http://www.cnn.com/2016/01/21/us/winter-snowstorm-washington-blizzard/

By Kevin J. Curtis     On the Planet Ganus 12, things were not good. There was a rift that had developed between the inhabitants and it was blamed on how they looked—rather than how they acted. It was looked at superficially without ever trying to understand the true reality of the unfortunate situation.     The Pounders looked like everyone else in most ways. They had two eyes, two arms, two legs a nose and mouth just like everyone did. Except that they had wedge-shaped heads. Oh don’t get me wrong, there was nothing substantially wrong with their heads; they were just wedge-shaped. The Pounders’ heads were of relatively normal size and were topped by normal looking hair.     Most Pounders went to school, had jobs and were hardly noticed by the rest of society—except for one thing. A certain percentage of Pounders were involved in an activity that had led to the unfortunate name this group had become known by. There were some who for no apparent ...

North Korean Leader Kim Jong-butt Endorses Trump UnAssociated Press January 21, 2016 First Vladimir Putin endorsed Donald Trump and then Sarah Palin did. With outstanding backers such as that, it was only a matter of time before the leader of North Korea followed suit. If anyone is wondering if Trump is fit to lead the United States, they only need to look as far as who his supporters are.

No one is responsible for anything anymore. It’s the police’s fault or the “system” or white people or education or anything except for themselves.

CuTRis to Boycott This Year's Oscars UnAssociated Press January 19, 2016 CuTRis is calling for an all-out boycott of this year's Oscars; because he says there are not enough bald people who were nominated. Citing the need for more diversity in gratuitous award ceremonies, CuTRis said that he would not be present this year. "I believe this is the most mature way to handle my upsetedness," said CuTRis .

Yesterday being below zero temperatures all day, we took our son to see The Peanuts Movie at the cheap theater . The movie was good and at 88 minutes was just about as much as a four-year-old could sit still for—even if he was thoroughly into it. The movie contained all the original shtick that one would expect plus a few new twists. In my opinion, Charlie Brown may have the widest appeal of any comic/cartoon character. Of course the supporting cast is exceptional too. I highly recommend the movie for children of all ages.

Nope, I didn't win!

A long and possibly unnecessary meeting took place yesterday as a St. Paul Charter School discussed its Transmogrification Policy . Students are already forbidden to harass each other over transmogrify ing into new forms. That is not good enough for the various groups who want to protect transmogrified students by pushing non-political issues into the political arena. The child(ren) involved are likely too young to fully understand the concept of transmogrification—and fortunately there are plenty of politically correct adults who are ready to make a big deal out of it to further education, liberalism and confusion about who "we" all are.

http://kstp.com/article/stories/S4009415.shtml?cat=12196 Is there supposed to be a protest when the black man assaults the police officer or is that OK? This is all so confusing!

http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/01/05/462020685/obama-seeks-commonsense-gun-control-through-executive-actions No more excuses for all the nuts running around with guns.

Aside from having to go out into the cold and that it gets dark earlier, there is really no reason that you can't grill in the winter. You might even enjoy that "taste of summer" more when there is snow on the ground! I made this on Sunday... Charcoal Grill Grilled Chicken Legs Grilled Sweet Potato

Amongst all the talk about police "gunning down" people of African-American ancestry, I keep seeing stories like this one. http://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2016/01/04/police-maplewood-woman-strangled-in-home-invasion/ Then I start wondering if "everyone" has lost focus about which lives matter? Does anyone protest after a child is killed or after (as in the story I mentioned above) an elderly woman was robbed at gunpoint and then strangled and left for dead? Does this elderly woman not matter and if so why not? Is she the wrong color to matter? I think most of us can agree that all lives matter. However, I would seriously wonder about that person who could steal the money and valuables that an older, weaker person had worked for—and then stand over her and listen to her choke and watch her pain as he strangles the life out of her. Does this person really deserve a protest when the day comes that he is confronted by police? What kind of message are "we"...

Less offensive and just as smart!

Whatever happens now is just fine. Seeing the Vikings beat the Packers at Lambaugh Field in the last game of the regular season on prime time to win the NFC North , was all I really wanted.
