Mom Puts Son To Work On Street Corner
I am not a fan of the news in general but last night a story caught my ear. A mother in Tampa, Rhonda Holder, was fed up with her son's failing grades and FCAT scores so she did something about it. What she did was put her son on the street corner for 8 hours with a sign. The sign reads: "I did four questions on my FCAT and said I wasn't [...]
Enter The Supreme Court
The Supreme Court of the United States is the ultimate Court of the land. The U.S. Constitution created one court that would have authority to rule over all laws, that is the short and simple version. Before we get to the Supreme Court though a person or company must go through two tiers of lower courts. We have two court systems in the U.S. [...]
Cat’s Paw Theory
In the previous post Can I Quit, I introduced Jane an employee, Skippy her manager, Dan senior upper management official and Marcia upper-management official. I also introduced the XYZ Co. that they all work for. Check out the post for the details of the hypothetical case we are discussing. Here I am going to discuss this doctrine that has [...]
Can I Quit?
Seriously, can I quit? What I want to quit is the insanity of the legal world. Actually, not the legal system but the lawyers who are behind it and who manage to twist the simplest of laws into something other than what they really are. The lawyers who make the legal system the extremely adversarial process that it is. The lawyers who use [...]
A New Experience
I haven't commented much on my daily life because well it has been kind of boring filled with numbers and calculations. I know what you are thinking, how can that be boring? But trust me it isn't all glitz and glamor or even a little glitz and glamor. I started on a new experience which isn't really exciting but definitely new and interesting [...]
This Is My World And You Are Just In It
I was very politely but in a condescending manner told to keep my opinion to myself. I found this funny as it was coming from someone who has voiced their opinion repeatedly. The difference being that person feels their opinion is wonderful and not really opinion but fact and feels that my opinion is damaging or will damage people. Opinions are [...]
Spanking: Effective Discipline
Smack in the middle of the "why are kids violent" issue is spanking. The groups against spanking want you to believe that spanking teaches violence. I happen to disagree and you can see why here at We Don't Teach Kids Violence. Do away with the theories and just look at the facts and you will see that babies are inherently violent and display [...]
We Don’t Teach Kids Violence
I wrote an article not long past that spanking doesn't create violence and showed that the results are pretty much consistent with that conclusion. People disagree and that is their right to disagree. They present arguments that spanking does create violence and the reason we are seeing an increase in violence has nothing to do with not [...]
The Storms Have Passed For Now
Well seems like the storms are at bay and I can finally get back to writing my daily post. I am physically back but mentally I am not here. I have written this same paragraph over about four times now. There has been a great deal that has happened since I was last here, I just don't know where to start. Maybe something cute. I got owned [...]
