Discord reigns on Board of Education

As divisive as the evolution issue was, that was just the tip of the iceberg. Corkins and the conservative majority are already pushing for vouchers and charter schools.

Topeka — The State Board of Education last week finished its battle over evolution, but the war continues.

At the same meeting, newly hired Education Commissioner Bob Corkins’ travel plans with conservative board members and his pursuit of private school vouchers caused another eruption.

Corkins announced he was going on multiple-city tours with two conservative board members, Connie Morris of St. Francis and Ken Willard of Hutchinson, both Republicans.

3. I'll bring a cream pie for her.

Or would a dozen clown noses to share with like minded supporters be more appropriate? Or a secondary virginity kit? Please let me know. I just want to help. }(

4. I'm torn between the cream pie and tar and feathers.

Don't know what a secondary virginity kit is, but it sounds like something she might actually approve of!

5. Well since you ARE a nurse and she IS a drug addict

(I don't buy the recovering part), I think you can come up with something appropriate.

Hey Put, coming to the meetup tomorrow? We reserved the party room :woohoo:

And I am having a beer. Yes I am.

8. Secondary Virginity Kit?

Edited on Tue Nov-15-05 11:25 PM by evlbstrd

What are those made of, Crazy Glue? Saran Wrap? Do they need a web site? Sounds kinda cool. Just the instructions would be interesting.
