Yes, indeed, last night, Mr. Ray “Whitewash Willy” Chandos was honored by the board with a resolution, owing, I think, to the scholarship that he has set up in his late mother’s name. The resolution was written with humor in mind: it referred to Chandos’ having served the district “with distinction.” Well, yes. 
When it came time to honor Raul Villalba with his resolution, the fellow could not be found. After a few minutes, however, he wandered back into the building and his resolution was presented. Someone insisted that he introduce his lovely wife, a school teacher, who is also retiring.As I reported last night, some came to speak about our trustees’—and especially trustee Tom Fuentes’—way with prayers and invocations. (See earlier post.) Carmenmara H-B also offered remarks, though they were read by Alannah.
BTW, Trustee Lang was praised for his decision to delete the invocation for the recent Saddleback College Scholarship event.
When given an opportunity to speak, new student trustee Matthew T. Reynard said that he hoped that he would make a “meaningful contribution.” Turning toward his fellow trustees, he also said that he looked forward to sitting beside these “insightful scholars.”
Wagner flinched. Mathur nodded. I just smiled.
Jeez, I’ve gotta run. I’ll have to finish this later.
On thing though: I should mention that, last night, Fuentes asked again for a list of the “$100,000 Club”—i.e., faculty who make the big bucks.

"Insightful scholars"? Um, they're Trustees, actually.
Well, they were elected to be Trustees, their practice however reveals something else entirely.

Liberal hatred - it's ubiquitous.
accept Jesus
Fuck Jesus.
I agree 7:48; they hate our millitary, they hate our right to defend ourselves, they hate our president, they hate the USA, they hate, they hate, they hate, and then the kool-aid drinking movie stars threaten to leave the country! I'm still waiting Genie Garafallo and Alec Baldwin... Please leave now.
Please don't forget, 9:44, that we also really, really, really hate you too.
Hey 9:44, why don't you leave? You're the ones stinking up the place.
Proverbs 12
1 Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but he who hates correction is stupid.
2 A good man obtains favor from the LORD, but the LORD condemns a crafty man.
3 A man cannot be established through wickedness, but the righteous cannot be uprooted.
4 A wife of noble character is her husband's crown, but a disgraceful wife is like decay in his bones.
5 The plans of the righteous are just, but the advice of the wicked is deceitful.
6 The words of the wicked lie in wait for blood, but the speech of the upright rescues them.
7 Wicked men are overthrown and are no more, but the house of the righteous stands firm.
8 A man is praised according to his wisdom, but men with warped minds are despised.
9 Better to be a nobody and yet have a servant than pretend to be somebody and have no food.
10 A righteous man cares for the needs of his animal, but the kindest acts of the wicked are cruel.
11 He who works his land will have abundant food, but he who chases fantasies lacks judgment.
12 The wicked desire the plunder of evil men, but the root of the righteous flourishes.
13 An evil man is trapped by his sinful talk, but a righteous man escapes trouble.
14 From the fruit of his lips a man is filled with good things as surely as the work of his hands rewards him.
15 The way of a fool seems right to him, but a wise man listens to advice.
16 A fool shows his annoyance at once, but a prudent man overlooks an insult.
17 A truthful witness gives honest testimony, but a false witness tells lies.
18 Reckless words pierce like a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.
19 Truthful lips endure forever, but a lying tongue lasts only a moment.
20 There is deceit in the hearts of those who plot evil, but joy for those who promote peace.
21 No harm befalls the righteous, but the wicked have their fill of trouble.
22 The LORD detests lying lips, but he delights in men who are truthful.
23 A prudent man keeps his knowledge to himself, but the heart of fools blurts out folly.
24 Diligent hands will rule, but laziness ends in slave labor.
25 An anxious heart weighs a man down, but a kind word cheers him up.
26 A righteous man is cautious in friendship, but the way of the wicked leads them astray.
27 The lazy man does not roast his game, but the diligent man prizes his possessions.
28 In the way of righteousness there is life; along that path is immortality.
