I voted!

Being a true blood American, I exercised my right to vote and it felt pretty good. Even though some items I voted for didn't pass, its nice that we have the opportunity to voice our opinion and hopefully help the greater good.

Utah sucks.

I know I've said this before, but I have to say it again. Parents here are not willing to take responsiblity and stand up to a system that is failing our children. I'm talking about the Vouchers referendum that failed to pass yesterdays elections. Even though the area I live in does not have any private schools that my children would be able to attend, its the whole concept of taking responsibility for my children's education.

Why I'm so passionate about this issues is because of the experiences our oldest daughter had when she attended 1st grade in public school. I could not believe the attitude of the teachers and the lack of concern on their part in educating these children. YOU CANT EVEN USE THE RESTROOM DURING RECESS so what is a child to do if they really really have to go and cant hold it anymore? Thats right, you guessed it. This was not limited to one instance, it happened several times. Did they care that it happened? Not in the slightest. That is why it saddens me that the voucher program did not pass. It would have sent a message to this messed up system we call public education, that we parents are not willing to stand by anymore and allow this to happen to any other child. Utah already has some of the largest class sizes and the least amount spent per student. Something needs to be done about this, but unfortunately the opportunity was passed up.

Ok, now that is out of my system, lets move on.

I love my wife! She is so awesome and makes beautiful awesome babies. I love the beautiful awesome babies too.

BTW go visit The Perry Bible Fellowship, damn funny stuff.
