128 kids suspended in Hammond
Growing up (and now), we got most our "play" clothes at the thrift store. It was cheaper for my parents to have us in uniforms than "everyday" clothes (my brother and sister when to public grammar school from 5th/6th onward and had uniforms there as well). I think what helped it to be cheaper is that we knew families with older kids and managed to score hand-me-downs as well as my sister being able to wear what I had worn. I never have and still do not understand the huff kids put up about wearing uniforms/following a dress code. Then again, I have never been one who likes drawing attention.

Arrest in the Jon Benet Ramsey Murder?
No surprise there. I can't help but still think that the parents were involved.

High gas prices.
Without a car wash, lowest gas by me is about $2.99. Brian got a car wash and a tank of gas for $2.74 a gallon.

128 kids suspended in Hammond
I wore uniforms from 1st thru 12th and I turned out okay. Hell, I had to wear a uniform at my first job (which I hated) as well - black pants and a white polo shirt with a stupid black tie (think grocery store clerk). I am all for uniforms as it cuts down on worrying more about looking better than the next student as well as costs for the parent.

QUOTE(Steff @ Aug 24, 2006 -> 08:31 AM) My thoughts are specific to my body. I have no interest in playing God. I pretty much agree with you on this. The bill sounds like a happy medium to me though. Surprises me since lately the bills that are in Congress/HofR are heavily sided one way or another.

Arrest in the Jon Benet Ramsey Murder?
I just read the book that was written about the Brown's murders. Interesting how easy it was for them to "get away" with it for so long and how normal the one turned out after the murders (Luna).

Another White Sox Loss to Minny
QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 20, 2006 -> 04:05 PM) What a $hitty way to spend part of my Sunday afternoon watching this debacle. Between this and Burton's blown enging on lap six (or whatever it was), I hear ya. I guess the Sox just spoiled us last season because inspite of their record, I still expect better. But keeping in mind they were in Twinkie land, the way this series turned out doesn't surpise me all that much.
