A basic management tool:
Where performance is measured, performance improves.

Remember Trump's story about the snake? Why do we keep voting for them in each election? We know how they are from their past performance.

Will, without a disclaimer, Cheesaman is declaring the actual value of this property and would need to produce a certified value to prove his validity. If presented to a bank, this could be a fraudulent action.

It is a lot to digest in one sitting, but I wonder if we should help them understand that bussing means K students (5 years old) will be riding on their own on a bus. The oldest child will be 8 or 9 years old. Will a five-year-old get off of the bus and run out in the street?

Please review Ray Leary's article in the Observer.

Let us hope that one day we will have representation that looks at what is good for the Country instead of the Party.

Maybe Homan can get him for harboring fugitives.

Stan is right. We not only fail to remember but fail to teach this to our children. Once in a while we hear the term “The greatest generation” and most young people have no idea what that means.
I was almost seven years old when I was sitting in my father’s chair in pajamas listening to a re-run of “Jack Armstrong the all-American boy” on that Sunday morning when I heard the announcement that Pearl Harber had been bombed.
In less than a year the Army came to my Dad, while we lived in Blounts Creek, and asked if they could put an Observation Post in our side yard. It did not take an act of Congress or a court action, my Dad said yes. We were at war.
My mother became the Chief Observer, and we spotted airplanes for the entire war.
By the time I was nine years old, I could identify all planes that flew by their silhouette. I thought I was in the Army.

Bob might find "Social Justice Fallacies" by Thomas Sowell a good read. Sowell is a black economist.

"He who is without sin, let him cast the first stone."
What a pompous bunch.

Follow the money trail.
Don't forget. "We have the best politicians that money can buy."

This should cut down on abortion.

I see that togetherness is over already. Let's keep score and see if Bob is correct. What was the first lie?

A big thank you to Ray Leary for hours of research and follow-up that should be SOP for the School Board and those making discissions in the Superintendent's office. We should have learned by now that neighborhood schools are better for the lower grades. This means less bussing and better individual help with the opportunity for more parent involvement.

I know the woke community does not want to hear this or agree but for the short time that I was in the Army the program was to teach us how to break things and kill people. It is unfortunate, but war is Hell and people have to be trained to face that if we plan to win a war.

We need to help our church friends understand the importance of voting in this election to protect our U.S. Constitution, children, family, right to worship, and protecting the unborn. We will not find a perfect politician but Donald Trump is our best choice. Those concerned about his morals might remember the statement from our Savior, "He who is without sin, let him cast the first stone".

Bob might review the story by Anderson, "The Emperor's New Clothes".
The tale concerns an emperor who has an obsession with fancy new clothes, and spends lavishly on them, at the expense of state matters. One day, two con-men visit the emperor's capital. Posing as weavers, they offer to supply him with magnificent clothes that are invisible to those who are incompetent or stupid.
Washington now has so many con men dipping into the money stream and spreading
Inuendos, stealing and lying that it is now just a way of life. And we just sit back and say, "Thank you sir, may I have another".
