Don't you just hate the "It's-that-time-of-year-again" feeling??? I'm feeling it now, and it's not helping things any being an even-numbered year.

It's never a question of when our pasts let go of us, but when WE decide to let go of our pasts.

Return of the King

Ignore the title. Due to such a considerable amount of time spent in hiatus, I didn't know what else to say.

I have learned that things have really heated up since I left for college, regarding the whole issue of the resolution being passed. Now I only wish I were there to witness it and help out with the pro-LEGAL immigration front. Why did I pick a college that was 3 hours away???

However, I recently stumbled upon the site of an old ally. Gosh, I'd nearly forgotten how he looked. I'll start bridging connections real soon.

The Jeff Frederick Crab Feast has proved that old enemies do not spoil my day. In fact, I might even go so far as to say that Betty Covington is a sweet lady. I think that if I could talk to her now, there would be no ill-references to the evils that the PWC school board has done, or my rant to the rest of the board members back in June.

If only I could say that about Julie Lucas......

By the way, the absentee ballot has been sent.

I don't think your name was on it.

Day of INFAMY

On December 7, 1941, the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbour. It was, as Former President Franklin D. Roosevelt called it, "A Day of Infamy." It certainly was…

Last year, April 5, 2006, was also a day of INFAMY.

It was the day a School Board stopped thinking about the students' best interests and instead started thinking of its own;

It was the day the Board Members needed to act "cool" and supported their superintendent;

It was the day a School Board protected the special interests of a VERY EVIL group of people from Greece, New York;

It was the day it didn't matter how many years of ALLEGIANCE you had in the system (more than 20 years to be exact), how positive ALL of your evaluations were, or how spotlessly-squeaky-clean your record was;

It was the day that it didn't matter how much positive support you had, or how LITTLE FEW people had UNTRUE things to say about you;

It was the day the staff lost a colleague; the teachers, their mentor; the parents, a leader.

But it was the day that the STUDENTS of FREEDOM HIGH SCHOOL had their HERO and their BEST FRIEND RIPPED AWAY FROM THEIR LIVES!!

A "Pearl Harbour" was attacked.

The Image of Freedom High School, shattered.

The Icon of Prince William County was RUTHLESSLY AND MERCILESSLY BACKSTABBED!!!

Today is the day the Prince William County School Board demoted and reassigned Dr. Dorothy McCabe from her position as Principal of Freedom High School for vague and unsubstantiated reasons.

May the date April 5th live on in INFAMY in Prince William County!!!

it was a Conspiracy

"I've been having some concerns."

"About what?"

"The grievances are going back to the people that did this to her. Last time I checked, the policy was 'Majority Rules'". NOW THINK ABOUT THIS!!! The majority is already against us ... I highly doubt they're going to give us a positive ruling on the grievances. You know what? Her attourney's right ... this is one goddamn kangaroo court."

"Oh my God, you make perfect sense."

"So what's our next move?"

"I had hoped that it wouldn't to come to this, but after what you've just told me, we gotta do Plan B ... plant the worm ..."

"Man, this place REEKS of a conspiracy."

"Tell me about it."

"I'll say this: it's gonna be a loooong night ..."
