"I didn't say you have to follow the market.  I'm suggesting you should base a decision on facts. Great, you brought up 2 facts 1 unemployment just went up Correct, it went from 7.8 to 7.9.  The US also just created 171,000 jobs…"

"So I acknowledge that this is snarky, but its a pet peeve of mine and I want to hear your response.  Rather than relying on your gut feeling, think about looking at facts.  People like to justify doing what feels good by saying "I…"

"One significant problem I have with Democrats is in many states teachers are overpaid, but I don't think its a federal issue.  I want the federal government to help college students more, but that's not going to happen. It sounds like…"

"I think that some teachers get paid too much and I feel some don't get paid close to enough. I think their pay should reflect their performance, not their seniority. Their job should depend on it also. I remember when I was a kid, teachers went…"

"I'm in Illinois.  I'm not familiar with the details, but its not as much of a factor here anymore. Do you agree with the Republican view that teachers are overpaid and their pensions are too generous?"

"My wife is one also. And it is alive and well. or should I say, not so well. When teachers are just teaching how to take tests, children miss out on alot. I think it's more then just getting rid of the "bad" teachers". They also…"

"My girlfriend is a teacher.  We haven't talked about this a lot, but I thought we already had gotten rid of no child left behind.  Maybe it varies by state. So, say 10% of teachers are incompetent and should be fired.  If they…"

The argument about PBS funding is different than Penn framed.  Romney wants to cut taxes 500 billion per year.  Everyone asks him how will he balance the budget.  His answer is to cut 20 million per year from PBS.  This offsets 0.004% of his tax cuts.

Vanilla & Chocolate Magic Swirtle

Posted by The Verge on May 15, 2013 at 1:14pm 4 Comments

I wanted to support Penn's latest promotion on Celebrity Apprentice, and went out an purchased 10 pints of Vanilla & Chocolate Magic Swirtle ice cream.  I gave 9 of them away, but kept one for myself. 

Before I continue, you have to know that I have spent the last four months watching everything that has been put into my system, and have lost 54 pounds.  A few spoonfuls of Penn's new flavor was going to be a small treat.

Holy Diarysweetgoodness!!  I wasn't expecting it to…
