This is in no way about Mrs. Chism.
I am so sick of teachers that are not worth a crap. There are certain teachers who do not answer their students. I will not name names although I should so that it can be a warning to not take their classes.
Well, I have sent a teacher of mine questions and he won't answer. I feel that this is wrong because I had a question on my work and he won't respond after several attempts. I feel that teachers who do this either have to much on their plates and should drop something so that they can do their job and help their students.
What bothers me most is that this semester I not only got one teacher like this but my wife got two teachers like this. I have watched her struggle all semester because she cannot get a response from her teacher. The only teacher she has this semester that will answer her questions is Mrs. Chism. I feel that this has hendered both her and my education. We are paying a lot of money to take classes and not have someone that will answer our questions. I do not know if any of you have ever had a teacher like this but it SUCKS!!!
It is hard enough to go to college after being out of school for 15 years, but then to not have teachers that respond to your questions, this makes what is already hard even harder.
Well best of luck to all. Have a good summer.
As for Mrs. Chism you have been a great teacher for both me and my wife, so Thank you!!!

Change
It is funny how people change over the years. Well some people anyway. I am 33 years old, and over the years I have watch the people that I went to school with change some for the better, some for the worse. I mean I grew up in Carthage, Mo and lets just say Carthage is or can be a very snobby town. With every school you have little clicks, you know like the cool kids and not so cool kids. I was some where in between. You know that kid that you've seen in the hall but never talked to.
I had a few friends in school,some where on one side and some that were on the other side. Then there where the kids who know me but never talked to me. You know them the ones that acted like they owned the world. Well it is funny how things sometimes work out in life. Even though there are those few that will always act like that, a lot of them will get a real strong dose of reality after school is over. They find out that there not rich or don't have the money they acted like they had.
Over the years I have seen the very same people who thought they were so much better them me, no better off then me or worse. Even though they treated me like I was invisible in school it is like they have been healed and can now see me. IT'S A MIRACLE!!! No just reality!
It would really be easy for me to just blow them off like they did tome when they talk to me, but I don't. I don't judge people for there past I understand that people can change and I don't want to lower my self to the level that they once were at. As for the people who are still out there that will never change, I will just say your loss!

Fate of 12-year-old killer?
Demarco Harris was convicted of murder by a jury in Detroit this week. Harris who is 13 was only 12 years old when he committed the murder. Trisha Babcock was sitting in her car when Harris tried to robber her, and shot her in the chest. Harris, who is sitting in a juvenile center, will be sentenced June, 1. A spokeswoman for the prosecutor's office would not comment on what they will be recommending, but the judge will have three options. He can sentence him as a juvenile, an adult, or both. Babcok's father said he would like to see the death penalty, Michigan does not have the death penalty.
What is this world coming to. When I was 12 I was more worried about get home to watch Scooby-doo or G.I. Joe. Now days we have to worry about our kids running around getting shot or in this case shooting someone else. Kids today are doing drugs and killing people, am I the only one that sees something wrong with this. I mean they want to talk about the war on terrorist hell lets take a good look around our cities. We need to stop and take control of our kids first.
Kids today are out of control! I can remember when I was a kid, and if I would of acted like the kids of today I wouldn't be here. Today we are not allowed to discipline our kids, and because of that kids today have no respect for anybody or anything. What a lot of these kids need is old fashion trip to the wood shed if you know what I mean. Yes I still believe in spankings, and if you think that is wrong then that is your right. I mean 20 years ago I bet at least 80 percent of us have had all been spanked as kids. We all survived and most of us turned out to be better people because of it. If kids don't learn that there is a price to pay for there actions then what is to stop them from going out and doing this very same thing.
It is time to put a stop to this nonsense. I mean I am not saying go out and bet your child. There is a difference between spanking and betting. If kids are this bad now what do you think it will be like for the next generation.

Money, Money, Money
Money makes the world go round. Well that is what some seem to think. It seems like there is never enough to go around is the biggest problem. No matter what I do it just seems like I have a big hole in my pocket. It never fails either the one time I have a few extra bucks the car brakes down or someone needs to go to doctor. Well easy come easy go, maybe not easy come.
Who was it that came up with the phrase, money doesn't buy happiness. Well that maybe true to a point, because money may not buy happiness but it sure helps. I think that the guy who said that must of never been broke. Trust me I can't ever think of a time when I had money and wasn't happy about it. I can't even tell you how many times I was broke and not happy.
The thing is money can be great and it can be evil. The second reason on the list of divorce is money. The number one spot surfing the Internet. Money there is never enough no matter how much you have. The crazy thing is the more you make the more you spend, so in reality it doesn't matter how much you have you never really have enough.

Nightmares and Vengeance: Movie Critic Roundup
Freddy is back, or is he? Jackie Earle Haley has take the role of Freddy Krueger in the new Nightmare on Elm Street. So how does Haley compare to Robert Englund, the original Freddy. Englund played Freddy in eight films and a TV series. According to Michael Rechtshaffen,of the Hollywood Reporter, there is no replacing Englund. Overall Rechtshaffen didn't like the movie. As for Roger Ebert, famous movie critic, he gave it only one star out of four. Bill Gibron from Filmcritic.com seemed to really like it, and gave it four out of five stars. All in all most of the critics didn't much care for the film.
Well I went back to school to become an engineer, but maybe I need to change my major. It looks to me that Hollywood needs some new writers. By all means I am no Wes Craven or Steven King, but come on. Is there no more imagination left out there. Did they run out of ideas in Hollywood or what. I mean every time you turn around there is another remake of an old movie. If all it takes is to take someone else's story and rewrite it to make millions, well then I'm get screwed. I have been doing that for the last two semester. There called blogs.
What I really hate is the fact that they take a good movie and ruin it. I mean there are just somethings you can't remake. I think the Freddy Krueger with Robert Englund is unreplaceable. Don't get me wrong I am not saying that the movie is bad, because I haven't seen it yet. It may very well be a good movie, but it will never be better then the original. I think that people need to start thinking out side the box and come up with some new stuff. I mean come on Batman is played out, give use a new super hero.
I feel that people are being lazy and just don't wait to come up with something new, because it is to easy to make a quick buck by changing someone else work and call it there own. Is that what this world is coming to, where we can't even think for ourselves anymore.

Relationships
Relationships can either be the greatest things ever or the worst thing ever. I personal have had both. Why is it men and woman are so different, but need each other so much. I don't care how much someone tells you they don't need the other, there full of it. I mean everybody wants somebody to love or to love them. Yet we take our partners for grant much to often. I think that is why people end in divorce so often.
People don't take relationships serious anymore. I mean to most people anymore, a marriage license is just a piece of paper. A marriage license is really a contract. Yes it is contract, to love, honor, and obey. I know some people don't like the last one, but it is true. The thing people don't understand is that to obey, is to obey your heart. You can read in to it however you want, but to me if you can't obey your vows then you are just going to be a statistic.
I also think that people watch to much TV!!! They expect love and relationships to work like all these love stories they watch on TV. Well guess what? They don't, it takes work from both side of the partnership. You have to give to receive. I mean if you don't give something into the relationship then you won't receive anything from the relationship. Thus ending the relationship and years of therapy!! Just kidding, well maybe for some people.
Just remember if you have someone or even if you don't right now, remember to tell them what they mean to you. Love them everyday like it was the first day, because like I said in a previous blog life sometimes happens. You just never know what tomorrow holds, and tomorrow might be too late.

Police: Man tortured 4-year-old to death for wetting his pants
Brandon Joshua-Frederick Hayes, 24, could spend the rest of his life in prison. Hayes tortured and beat Dominick Calhoun, 4, to death for wetting his pants. According to police, Hayes burnt the young boys knuckle and punched and kicked him. Calhoun was barley breathing when EMS arrived, and later was pronounced brain dead at the hospital. The police chief said that this was the worst case of child abuse he had ever seen. Hayes has been charged on nine different charges, just a few are one count of first-degree premeditated murder, one count of first-degree child abuse and one count of torture. This is not the first time that abuse had been reported at the home, but the Genesee County Department of Child Services were unreachable for comment. It is also unclear where the mother was during the assault the boy. It was known that the mother was there for part of the beating and did try to shelled her son.
What the !@#$$!!!!!! I mean stuff like this just ticks me off!!! I mean what is wrong with people. Who could beat and torture a 4 year old child. The boy had an accident, wait let me stop there. Even if the boy did it on purpose the actions from the boyfriend by far don't match the crime. This man didn't just do something uncalled for, he did something just down right evil. This poor boy has been a victim much like many kids around the world, and it is said that there are people like Hayes. I also believe that Hayes is not the only one at fault here. Where was the mother, or better yet how could she allow this to happen. I mean you can't tell me this was the first time Hayes had abused little Calhoun. Then there is Child Services. I mean there had been several reports made about abuse, but nothing was ever done.
There were several people at fault for this crime, and this poor little boy had to live out his last moments of his life in a living hell. What's even worse is that Hayes will be the only person punished for the crime. Even though there is no punishment that even comes close to what he deserves, but at least he won't be able to do this again. I don't feel that prison or even the death penalty is good enough for Hayes. He deserves the exact same thing he dished out.
Even though it doesn't seem fair that this poor innocent boy lost his life, at least now he is in a better place. I mean there are worse things then death, like living in hell like he did. I mean don't get me wrong this is all messed up, but as we all know that life just sometimes is cruel and unfair.
