The most art we did in kindergarten was trying to color in the lines Unless you want to count gluing things to paper as art then yes we had art.
But that was where that ended. From 1st - 12th the only opportunity at my school anyone had for an art class was only available to 7th graders well just so happens that the year I was in 7th grade was the only year they did not have the class they had it the year before and they had it the year after. Couldn't take it in 8th grade though nope you had to have taken it the year it wasn't available.
As for music I know there is a band class now but I don't remember if they had one at the time.
I would have liked to learn to write (as in books not as in scribbling on paper) and draw (as in better than stick figures) I plan to someday if I ever get the time. But it's looking less and less likely that I ever will as the years go by.
Speaking of changing the rules that's probably where my problems in school started and why my penmanship is barely legible today. I was taught to write my letters and numbers the wrong way the first year I was in school I know I was because I still had some of the practice sheets from the first year when the second year started so it was easy to prove. Apparently, the first teacher was wrong.
They had changed what was considered to be the correct way to write letters the second year I was there. So everything I had just learned about writing the year before I was then told was wrong I had to do it the new way. I suppose I didn't really try anymore after that and as a result, my writing looks as bad today as it did in 1st grade.
That's mostly myth it was mostly done because the school buildings were too hot it the summer before air conditioning and it hurt attendance. http://www.pbs.org/newshour/up...
I ended up with the highest tested reading and comprehension skills in my graduating class but I would not go back to that daily hell for anything. I could go to college it might be different but after going through our local high school, I don't think I could even today mentally cope with anything similar to it and for how much college would cost to attend it's not worth the risk.
I do the same but I do it for the guaranteed delivery dates.
Problems are very few and far between. And everything has been taken care of very promptly..with the one exception of that one package they lost and I had to reorder all of the items. I did get a refund but it made everything I ordered about a week late.
Well now that was a long time ago. One of the things I remember about high school was that the library was off limits unless you had a class that used it. Before school? Closed. Lunch? Closed librarian takes lunch same time. During class? I only ever had one class that used the library and that class only used it twice. After school? Closed.
So when are you supposed to use it?
As for kindergarten I just remember the neat little school play we did and all the toys that were always in varied states of missing. I vaguely remember having to recite a-z and 1-100 and getting punished for things other kids had done. I don't remember if we had a recess or not.
One more question. Would you think it ok if in the workplace today your boss said hey you know how bob broke the $5 lamp in the break room? Well because of that we are docking everyone a day's pay.
Ahaha I missed the joke I get it now You were talking about cats being schizophrenics because they are all crazy and I was talking about crazy people that end up with 20+ cats.
IIRC about a year ago amazon discontinued support on iOS 5.0.1 I'm still disappointed that I can't check my orderers on my ipod touch anymore but their app still works great on my ipad running 6.1.3
I don't have to worry If their measurement system messes up and says I used 12ZB of data or I happen to use 5GB on netflix my bill will always be the same.
I'm mildly curious I want to think private charities but the first result for "welfare us budget" snippet shows $1.03 trillion in 2011 but TFS says that the religious organizations are spending only about $9 billion that's a pretty big gap.
I remember one of the first cellphones we had if you held down the 1 button it dialed 911 so this has been a problem for years and no one seems to care to fix it.
That particular phone got stuffed in the back of a seat when we found it it had been connected to 911 for two and a half hours.
Sorry american spectator here. If there was no other adgenda and they didn't plan on holding up their promises if they won why even have the vote? I suppose it would make it look like democracy was working like it was supposed to if it had failed. But it passed and a large percentage of what was promised fell through so they got the worst of both options. They agreed to leave the EU but AFAIK don't have any plans to actually leave the EU or draw up any plans. Immigration was supposed to be overhauled but after winning they said they wern't actually going to do that. And a variety of other things.
So as far as I can tell not a lot is changing except they now have a lot of uncertainty and pretty much nothing they voted for.
For our current US election this time we have four lizards and I wouldn't be comfortable with any of them being responsible for so much as a cat.
But I suppose that these must be the only people that will run for office.
So what he's saying is that Trump is trying to pull a Brexit. From what I understand about brexit none of them really expected they would win and when they did win everyone was like oh well we didn't really mean any of the things we said we were just trying to keep any third party from winning.

I seem to remember not being allowed to do homework in class even if I had already completed all of the classwork for that hour.

Not how it worked at mine you just got left way behind and they gave you a D- so they didn't have to deal with teaching you next year.
Must be talking about the free nonprime shipping.

Says that self driving cars will put an end to car ownership.
It could put a dent in it but unless this makes people so broke that they can't own their own car I think personal space will still win out.

Do cats cause schizophrenia? I thought it was the other way around.

It's mostly just better for peace of mind.

I don't really see how it's news either.
It just seems to be a statistic.
At this point i'm almost convinced that it was a fake wiki edit because i've never been able to find any pictures anyone else have any better luck?
Anyone figured out where they moved the "Password protection on wakeup" setting to in the AU?
I have a lot of computers with no password so the prompt is just a PITA.
Hmmm my iPod touch 4 running iOS 5.0.1 and my iPad 2 running 6.1.3 don't nag me about new versions. Is that something they added recently?
I'm now 5 whole versions of iOS out of date yay!

There was no one on the line though.
Well it's a nice thought but from their actions it doesn't appear that they have. Maybe it was so long ago that they have forgotten?
There was a Kickstarter to send a copy of the constitution to every member of congress but it wasn't successful. https://www.kickstarter.com/pr...
I'm not sure why.
