In this life

Today there was an assembly about bullying.I didn't attend it but I was packing up the lunch crate and heard some of what the woman was talking about.
Theres are several types of bullying
Theres verbal bullying and physical bullying.
In school I was a victim of verbal bullying.Mostly name calling.
It was mostly kids calling me stuff like reject and retard because they know I was in a Special ed class.
Being in a special Ed class doesn't mean your retarded.It just means you having a harder time learning somethings or your learning process isnt at the same level as the other kids.I think folks should know that.
We tend to base peoples social status on knowledge,income,where they live,race,etc
We should just stop all that BS and treat each other with love and respect.
Instead of putting someone down we should lift each other up.
Today I told asked a young student how he was doing and told him I was proud of him.Sadly some kids don't hear that enough.they get told when they don't do what they should but they don't hear "you did well" or "Im proud of you" enough.
Good old reality TV is no help either Shows Like basketball wives where all they do is argue and fight and The Jersey shore where they party, and sleep with each other is not not a good influence.
Oh but what do I know?I grew up in the 60 and 70s but as far as quality entertainment goes Paul Simon said it best.I was born at the right time!
OK now if you have kids go give them a hug and tell them how much you love them!

random thoughts

Last night I thought to myself.Why am I complaing about being stuck inside?Days eh hem weeks like this provide time to relax and go through old mixtapes and relax.
Many good songs have I forgot about.
Speaking of Memories I watched the first episode of Starsky and Hutch Tonight on DVD.
Starsky and Hutch was a Popular cop show in the mid to late 70s.
I found I book in my closet titles Jazz 101.Aha something to read.I love jazz and want to learn more about its history althought years ago I watched Ken Burns series on Jazz on Channel 13.
I might watch thats again on DVD too.
The first grade is doing a survey on whether the groundhog will see his shadow or not.Frank and I said no.I think that groundhog stuff is just malarkey but I go along with it at work.

celebrity rehab,etc

ON VH1 theres a reality series called celebrity rehab.Its about celebrities that have drug and alcohol Problems and go to a guy named Dr Drew Pinsky for help.Most of them got into the party life and couldn't stop.Some one them had been abused as youngsters and their only way to deal with it is to get high.
I sometimes try to predict who will make it.Its hard to tell with this batch.Leif Garrett is the only one I really know.When he was younger he and a friend were driving drunk and they got in a crash.Leif didn't get hurt bad but his friend is crippled.Thats gotta be one heck of a load to carry day after day.I do hope he gets sober though.
Not much good is on TV these days.As far as Christmas movies Go Polar express and its a wonderful life are worth watching every year.
I finally Finished my library hits mix and will post it soon.theres a few mixes I said that about isn't there?
