Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

Saddened to hear of the passing of basketball great Paul Westphal a man who you never heard a bad thing about. And someone who many described as a better person than basketball player - and Westphal is in the Hall of Fame as a player... I laughed way too much at this lady... Someone at NOAA with a sense of humor should name the next major hurricane "Siri" just to mess with people with Apple products... My take-away from the college football semi-finals is that Northwestern must have a much better defense than Clemson... Lawrence Mass teacher "proud" to have taken Homer's Odyssey out of the curriculum. First I'm willing to bet that Lawrence has some of the lowest test scores in the state (and with this jackass teaching it's no wonder). Second let's go all the way with this and say since most past accomplishments were by dead white males then everything must be created from scratch to insure that they are free of any past racism. I suggest that we start with the wheel. Let's get rid of anything that has a wheel. The lever - that's next. Better yet let's just make every student in Lawrence get home schooled or attend a charter school instead...
