Yeah, I'm sure the star football player didn't have a large enough harem.

DON'T YOU KILL MY DREAMS DON! don't you do it.
It's been fun, y'all. Ima going to bed.
I took typing to set next to the girls. Ended up sitting between two of them who had to peek over their two lady parts on their chests to see the key board. I typed very fast so I could look away from the keyboard. Once I slammed the carriage on the old Underwood so hard that it went flying into the jaw of one of them. She didn't talk to me for awhie, well she didn't talk to anyone for awhile.

Took typing in high school, only boy in the class....smart move. And with the invention of laptops--an even better move.
I have a lot of food allergies but most are more of an annoyance than a real threat. Until I found out otherwise. Have eaten tomatoes all my life with just an occasional slight reaction. About three years ago neighbor brought us some fantastic home grown tomatoes from their garden which went right into 2 BLTs. Delicious--one of my former favorites. 20 minutes later I'm in the ER with an IV in my arm drinking some strange concoction trying to make sure I can breath.
Needless to say, I take my allergies a little more seriously these days. Scary.

A Servant is a very important thing for a little princess to have!
That is bad Mash. Tomatoes are God's gift to the Americas.
At the least you can have spaghetti, lasagna et.al.
LOL - there were only two females in that class - and the other one didn't like boys, ya know?Because other gals, who also took the class, wanted to build a boat?
we didn't build boats - but I did make a lamp
I took the Campbell's soup recipe and kind of modified it a little:
2 lb ground beef
chopped onion
1 can mushrooms - pieces and stems
2 cans cream o mushroom soup
1 package lipton onion soup
2 tsp (or so) beef bouillon granules
dash or two of worcestershire sauce
8 oz container of sour cream
brown the meat with onion, then drain; add everything except the sour cream and let simmer while noodles are cooking. I usually use the wide egg noodles. When those are done, dump into a colander to drain. While the noodles are draining - add sour cream to the meat mixture. Dump the noodles back into the pasta pot. I add a little butter to the noodles to keep them from sticking. Then spoon out what you want, add the stroganoff and yum yum. It's really a good economy meal - usually have green beans and crescents to go with it.
that sounds delish - let me know when and I'll come for dinner. I will bring a present

Regardless of the actual reason for taking home ec - I think every guy should take it. Not every parent teaches their boys to do basic home skills, like laundry, cooking simple meals, etc. Just like I think girls should take automotive so they can change their own tires, the oil and do basic car maintenance.
actually, thinking about it - both of those should be required for all students, regardless of gender. Also add in a basic class on budgeting, check book balances, and all that. - you know, common sense stuff most of these kids don't have a clue about.
ouch that sucks - I love fresh tomatoes. Sorry for @GhostVol as well.
I'm thankful to say that (as far as I know) I don't have any food or drug allergies.
- Basic Cooking.
- Basic Automotive
- Basic Bookkeeping
- Basic Carpentry.
- Basic Washer & Dryer Operation
- Basic Sewing.
yep, exactly -
The folks that make the decisions to not teach these basics have to be in the idiot category.
Alben Barkley was VPOTUS when HST was the President. I went to school with ABIII. Alben was being bullied once in Junior High School. Circled formed in the school yard. Alben beat the **** out of the bully. He didn't have any idea that Alben could box. No police. No security guards. Nature took its course. Problem solved.
55 could return for the weekend.
no kidding - it SHOULD come from the parents - I know we've worked to teach our kids these things. My older two have been doing their own laundry since they were 12; the youngest will start doing his alone very soon. As it is, right now, he helps with it and has been putting away his own clothes for several years. All of them can follow directions for simple cooking - the older two being more advanced, of course. Both of the older ones can change their tires, check the oil, etc on their cars. And of course, we've worked on teaching money management from the first time they got an allowance.
But if it's a situation that the parents cannot or will not do this, the schools should. These kids are going to school/vocational or entering the work force without a clue.
that's another thing I could rant on - kids aren't allowed to defend themselves anymore. I don't condone fighting, but understand that sometimes that's what has to be done to put an end to bullying. Instead, if they get "bullied" in any way - they have to run to the teacher or admin staff and tell them. That labels kids as tattletales - and oftentimes makes it worse, IMO. There are situations, of course, where telling staff should be first thing, but not always.
This was my hotrod when QB and I got married. This car was badazz. 350HP, 4-speed.

Society has changed in a lot of ways for the better. The PC culture is not one of those changes I think is useful. In high school (my freshman year), my friend was punched in the face by a bully 50 pounds bigger. poor kid had his nose broken. The next day I walked up and punched the guy right in the gut. He never bothered my friend again. I feel like I probably would have been jailed if I had done that as a high schooler today.
I don't condone fighting, but sometimes there is just no other way. Won some and lost some. When the bullies know that you will fight they usually leave you alone.
what these people don't seem to understand is that bullying like that involves a lot more than throwing punches. There is a mental aspect that can completely break a kid down. It's usually little things - stuff that becomes one person's word against another's. Bullies also usually travel in packs and their buddies will back them up.
I'm sorry, but this is a sensitive issue for me, both of my boys have/had issues. Older son was small for his age, wore glasses and has bright orange-red hair. Add in that he's ADHD and he was a target. Younger son is ADHD and mildly autistic; he's also small for his age (only 65 lb and getting ready to start middle school); also a target. Both were subjected to overt bullying and the mental stuff all through elementary school and middle school. If either had been allowed to defend themselves, much of that would have been mitigated.
I will add this - if either of my boys HAD stood up for themselves and hit back AND gotten a suspension for doing so, it would have been fine. Hubby and I talked about it - neither would have gotten further punishment, and we'd have honestly been proud of them.
Had a family argument last week on this exact topic. My 13 year old son was being taunted at school so he grabbed the kid and tossed him to the ground. No hits, no real fight, but pretty much let the kid know his taunts weren't welcome.
My two daughters were besides themselves as they said he should have turned the other cheek and walked away. Not in my world....sometimes you have to stand up for yourself and I'd rather my son learn this at 13 than at 23 when someone else is twice as big and more dangerous.
Looking back, I've walked away from two situations that would have ended badly...for me. Smart decisions Stood my ground on a few occasions and called their bluff where they walked away. But, I walked away from one situation where I should have stood my ground and let whatever happen to happen. Always regret that one.
