Good morning everyone. Off to be frustrated by the public school virtual system. At least it's Friday.

Morning

I just looked up Common Core. I am totally befuddled.

When I worked in mold design, one of my coworkers had a child in 3rd (?) grade. His teacher told him that a right angle was "a right turn." Dad said, no, it's called a right angle. Call it that, and if your teacher has a problem, she can call me and I will tell her that she is doing a grave disservice to her students dumbing down basic principles. And then I'll call the Principal, and go to the next school board meeting.

Another person told me his 6th grade daughter was told to spell words "how she thought they should be spelled."

In that case, Teacher, my name is spelled, S-A-L-8-L-Y. The 8 is silent. You got a problem with that?

ok so a 45 degree angle would be a 45 degree turn a 90 degree and so forth, who's teaching this, I would ask my dad who was a carpenter so when I cut it's a 45 or 90 degree turn then right?? Then duck to dodge the tape measure he thru at me.

I know it's not a biggie but the whole taste and smell thingy bothers me.

Bothers you for them since you don't have Covid, right?

No, he said they all got it.

I've been meaning to do this for a few days. Each time I go out to feed, I still admire this flock. Bruce is a son of one of the first roos I got, and 3 of the ladies are my first ever hens. Those are their daughters with them. The daughters are bigger and fuller bodied than the original hens. So, I'm pleased with myself. Henrietta will be 2 in March, and for a BSL is still popping out eggs on a daily basis.

P.S. I don't know what the heck YT did to the video, it's as sharp as can be on my phone and on YT itself.

Good afternoon, OF.

Hey sour. Didn't you have dog trials?

Done at the club for the year.
The Princess and I just got our Moderna boosters.
