A blessed Sabbath, Gerbil Nation!
It’s still hot out here and the two primary air conditioning units in the sanctuary of my church weren’t working as of Thursday night. Naturally this is the first Sunday back for the choir after the summer hiatus.
I could kind of understand the excuse for giving diplomas to the Class of 2015, since the state took away their last chance to pass the incredibly easy high school exit exam. I can also understand the excuse that Common Core affords them to suspend the test until a new test is created -- any excuse to halt a test that demonstrates how schools continue to fail our kids. What I don’t understand is how Gov. Moonbeam can justify making this action retroactive to the first year the test was put in place.
Silly Paddy…laws are merely a way to control the little people; politicians can do whatever the fark they want. As such, perhaps all oaths of office should include the donning of a fake toothbrush mustache, which must be worn in public for their entire term in office.

¡Hola, GN!
Hai, Paddy!
Hope your church was able to get the AC’s repaired; have a good “season opener”.
I’m sure this will work out well: California Will Give Free High School Diplomas To Kids Who Flunked Out
A possibly-unearned diploma and high minimum wage will be terrific for helping kids get a foothold on that first rung of the economic ladder.

L’shanah tovah tikatev v’taihatem!
Man, do my Raiders suck. I hate football.
And Happy Rosh Hashanah to those gerbils of a Jewish persuasion.

On behalf of all the GN’s Joooos, thank you. 🙂
