After hearing about what happened at the board...Hi! After hearing about what happened at the board meeting I listened to the portion of tape which had Trustee Wagner talking about these "liberal busybodies," and it down right scared the crap out of me. It scared me that this trustee actually has the authority to vote on where the money goes to in our schools. In my opinion, this trustee is clearly not playing with a full deck. First he goes after women's groups because Jane Fonda has been associated with them, and then the Chamber of Commerce in Laguna Beach (because he doesn't believe that "our constituents" want their tax dollars spent this way. Heck, I am a constituent and I don't mind) and now this. It's like, "Hello! Communism died out a long time ago!" Most people have moved on from the Jane Fonda issue, which was well over 35 years ago. Of course, Wagner would probably been another chicken hawk like his hero "W." More than likely he's doing this to show off of what a "real Republican" he is to crony Trustee Tom Fuentes, by self-righteously wrapping himself in the flag. It sort of reminds me of the episode of "M*A*S*H when Harry Morgan played a nutty general who danced around the tent singing "Mississippi Mud." Everyone in the tent thought that he should have been "taken away in a rubber truck," and I think that this is where Trustee Wagner might be headed if he keeps seeming like he's having delusions that somehow, these "liberal/communists" (like librarians and other educated women)are somehow out to get the taxpayers and students. I just hope that the union is getting themselves organized like they were when they recalled that other trustee and got Bill Jay elected. I know that I've got my walking shoes on.:-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16908834.post-1139619344298465962006-02-10T16:55:00.000-08:002006-02-10T16:55:00.000-08:00Did he know it was a sandbag leftover from the fil...Did he know it was a sandbag leftover from the filming of a cheap local soap opera when he sent out the "hail fellow job well done" missive to the college community?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16908834.post-1139591130964408032006-02-10T09:05:00.000-08:002006-02-10T09:05:00.000-08:00What did Glenn know and when did he know it?What did Glenn know and when did he know it?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16908834.post-1139556198156615762006-02-09T23:23:00.000-08:002006-02-09T23:23:00.000-08:00When did they know it was a sand bag?When did they know it was a sand bag?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16908834.post-1139500863208134952006-02-09T08:01:00.000-08:002006-02-09T08:01:00.000-08:00Okay here's a theory:Some of you may have noticed ...Okay here's a theory:<BR/><BR/>Some of you may have noticed that on Fridays, for reasons I have yet to fathom, the A-100 building often hosts a crew of cable TV folks - equipped with cameras, lights, booms, mikes, etc. Lots of tripods and cords and fresh faces. There's an urgency about their activity, yet a sort of low-key, strip mall glamour too. Someone suggested to me that those people film "Glenn's TV show" - whatever that means.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, yesterday, as I was describing the "bomb" to my sweetheart, he piped up - "That's no bomb or barbell -- sounds like what the techies use to weigh down tripods and other equipment."<BR/><BR/>Then I thought of those Friday morning folks. Lightbulb goes off over my head.<BR/><BR/>Then we saw the pic of the "bomb" or "barbell."<BR/><BR/>Hmmm.<BR/><BR/>What do you think?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16908834.post-1139469192629338512006-02-08T23:13:00.000-08:002006-02-08T23:13:00.000-08:00Hey hey hey...for the record, I did not squeal at ...Hey hey hey...for the record, I did not squeal at the thought of no class.
