as far as the schools shutting down, I'm all for consolidation. public schools need a complete "do over". from the top to the bottom. the administrators were making more money than they ever should have based on how many schools were under their umbrella....regardless if it was a decent school or not...that is why we had so many "dysfunctional" public schools to begin with.
the only way to really change that is to get involved in local politics and the school boards. the states control that, the federal government only subsidizes. we seen how fucked we were when the feds got involved with the "no child left behind" act. it's best to keep them completely out of it and only use them as needed. the states are completely capable of running their own operations.

Seraph, read this and then let's have a discussion. This guy is not a nut job--he's one of the great minds of advertising.

Here's an excerpt:
"The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country. ...We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of. This is a logical result of the way in which our democratic society is organized. Vast numbers of human beings must cooperate in this manner if they are to live together as a smoothly functioning society. ...In almost every act of our daily lives, whether in the sphere of politics or business, in our social conduct or our ethical thinking, we are dominated by the relatively small number of persons...who understand the mental processes and social patterns of the masses. It is they who pull the wires which control the public mind."
He wrote this in 1928.

Alot of people tried to be proactive. They were call the "Tea Party." But that was just demagogued as racist or something else and people dismissed it. Pity.

I didnt really read the thread but i see that scorched is in here so i have an idea what type of party this is. Im not here to fight or argue i just have something to share.
what the fuck is that supposed to mean?
It means you're confrontational. It seems like youre easily angered over words on your computer screen.
its because she's gay..or she think she's gay..
what she doesn't seem to understand is that the reason WHY she's so angry all the time is because she's not allowing herself to get piped down like the whore she truly wants to be..
I agree with Damen. People who have sex regularly usually arent angry or frustrated.click to expand

Hmm it is a tough situation I guess. I just hope this particular Aqua wasn't like the one my friend dated a few years back . Ended up having to get a restraining order on him.
What have you tried so far anyway? Because as Pech said, if it comes to it I'd ice out the other person and block all means of contact.
Aquas are fixed signs and can be obsessive. Especially when denied. What makes it even worse is that he knows it was his fault that you guys didn't work. Now he can't get it on his head that you really done. He thinks he's in control of your relationship. I just made peace with the fact that mine will always be "around". At least until they found another.
I've made up my mind. What they do doesn't really matter. It's been 7 yrs since one of my breakups and 3 since the other. Both of them are convinced that I'm the one. Lmao. No.
I don't think your mind has really been made up about this guy. If it was, you wouldn''t feel that you being able to move on is a condition of what he is or isn't doing.
My mind has not been completely made up since he resurfaced. However, I know that it is for the best that we continue to go our separate ways.click to expand
