CVS

Working is a natural part of life like birth, sleeping, and bathing. Work will always be needed. I needed to get a summer job and CVS was the best one I could find. Maybe I didn't look hard enough but as everyone knows I am also coach hockey. In fact it may not be the best job I could find, but instead the best one for a hockey coach who has a sporadic schedule. I love part time jobs. The people and the customers make for great stories. Especially when a customer asks for a box from the back room yet no box satisfies. Until you find out she is burying her dead cat and needs the perfect box, from CVS, to make her cats final resting place perfect. A natural part of life indeed.

The Dark Knight

I responded to a boston globe article with the following. Movies do make you feel better and at times unite the masses. In the Dark Knight you see the world turned upside down with future danger inevitable. In the end of all great movies something ends and dies. Nolan doesn't want allegories galore, because he wants you to enjoy the art. If you want allegories then go see "There Will be Blood".
If you don't think this movie questions the major theories of a democratic society or the importance of a presidential election then you are mistaken. When electing a person into a government office you should look to the right person with a proven track record who you have a good feeling about. When a hero is faced with adversity you have a want him to throw the detonator out the window or sacrifice everything when even a gun is pointed in his face. This movie unveils everything good and bad about the human race. If that doesn't juice your roger, you can just take it for the fun art it is. Maybe then you're world will no longer be upside down, but instead it will be a brighter place with The Dark Knight.

Hawaii

In case you were wondering, Hawaii is BEUTIFUL. It is not too hot or too cold. The mountains are beutiful and the ocean is crystal clear. We have pictures of a beutiful wedding. I will be returning to Attleboro to start my summer of hockey and math tutoring.

Life is too short to never travel. I wonder if there is a paradise like hawaii anywhere else in this universe. I say nope, but I will spend the rest of my life looking for an equal.

Ballin After School

Aud Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhchhchchchbueer tried to teach Mr. Taylor how to shoot a basket ball properly. It was hilarious. That was after Mr. V , Mr. T, Mr. Kefor, and I had already beaten the ladies.

Last week we beat K. Shicehekehehehkerker, and B. Av. This week another trouncing. It was a 4 on 4 versus K.B., Shanny, A.S., and Waz.

Victory
Good luck getting better over the summer.

One final note. When the girls played best they really took it to us when they were playing aggresive. Someone once told me being aggressive helps you play better. I don't buy it.

Bring Folders and Notes

The organization skills you gain from keeping a neat folder and binder is all about regulating. If you want to be an artist and put your files in stacks, that's ok. That may be you.

What answer to why do we have to do this? Those who don't see value in the skill should do it now and get the rewards in the form of a grade. In some way grades will motivate you for all your academic career. Feel no guilt over that. It is funny to think of all the things grades ,and later money, will make you do.

Just remember, after my class, you did stay organized once.

Are you born with it?

Are baseball players natural stars or are they trained ?

Nature vs. nurture

Are some people born to be teachers or can they be trained?

I wonder what the answer truly is
