FRIDAY'S HUM ( 5-5-06 )

TEACH YOUR CHILDREN
HUM on the mean streets definitely not kind to CESU teachers. Complaints flying from Joe and Jane average; they're teed off about most educators having much better health care coverage than themselves; also seething about finding child care during strike, along with myriad gripes about teacher stunts - not striking during vacation and striking close to graduation.
We know where this is going to end, folks. Down the road, Vt will finally invoke legislation prohibiting teachers from striking, like most states. It's only a matter of time.

HAND OVER THAT DRINK
Zero booze next year in the dorms at The New UVM. Man, wouldn't you love to be a little birdie and catch the enforcement battles on this one. How creative do you thinks the students will get. Vodka in Gatorade bottles, secret chamber books with wallet sized flasks...the list goes on. Anyway, give Prez F an A for effort.

FIVE CORNERS UPDATE
Waited so long at the Essex Junction Five Corners Light this morning I could actually see my nails growing! Remind me to bring the clippers tomorrow.
