Why didn’t anyone tell me that registering for these tests take thirty minutes, and ask really pointless questions that invade your privacy, and have nothing to do with how you score on the test (like race and religious preferences, which by the way Buddhism, Hinduism, Muslim… not on there. What the hell is that?)
AND (while I’m on my soap box) can we please discuss tomorrow on how celebrities corrupt the government? Is anyone following Lohans’, Richies’, or Hiltons’ legal faux-pas? And how if a low income, middle-aged black man with half of the arrests that Lohan has got caught with cocaine in his car, he’d be in prison for a number of years, not hours. Very frusterating.
And what is this Hilary Duff is a sexy, promiscuous, slutty role model now?! Watch her music video “Stranger”. :[
WHAT IS HAPPENEING TO OUR SOCIETY!? I’m FREAKING OUT man!
In that article on Bowl-cut Boo Radley, did anyone notice how she (attempted) to appeal to emotion? Pathos! She just makes the whole story sound so melodramatic and sad instead of being a non-biased informative.
(Yes, Stallings, I pay attention throughout all of my ranting and raving.)
I’m not a student, but I have to take advantage of the bottled water article. Mr. Stallings already knows how NYers feel about bottled water.
I don’t think I have the tenure to be considered a NYer yet, but I’ve been against bottled water for a while. Why? Because if you have the foresight to feel up a container before you leave the house, then you don’t have to pay for Coca Cola’s bottling of an element that is as ubiquitous as air.
I’m sure the students remember the ugly container that I carried to school every day. Guess how much I paid for my 150 gallons of water I drank last year. $4 dollars at Walgreens.

DUDE, as did I. The Princeton Review.

Oh yeah–

Love it. We’ll discuss it tomorrow. Remind me.

Lmao Mr. E! WE MISS YOU!!!

Mr. E-
As great as Stallings is, I’m missing you a lot, especially creative writing.
I think bottled water is ridiculous as well.
Aaaand I hope you’re doing really well. I ask people for updates on you and Mrs. G all the time, and I hear things are good.

It’s funny to laugh at Mr. E’s typos, considering he was our english teacher. You feel up that water bottle!
