    | I told my sixth period class that the state Senate Education Committee voted 9 to 3 to allow teachers to have guns; uproarious laughter ensued. Gasping, one student asked, "So wait, Señorita, you're going to get a gun?" I replied, "I sure am! How's that for incentive to study!"  My students spent the next 10 minutes giggling and coming up with possible scenarios: Mr. S shoots off a toe every time you say "um" during a presentation, Señorita asks Apoorva to be quiet for the last time, the lunch bunch of room 207 easily smashes Señorita's particle board desk, steals the gun and plays Russian roulette for french fries. We giggled at the absurdity of it all.

                      | Government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.... We've been tempted to believe that society has become too complex to be managed by self-rule, that government by an elite group is superior to government for, by, and of the people.  Well, if no one among us is capable of government himself, then who among us has the capacity to govern someone else?  All of us together, in and out of government, must bear the burden. The solutions we seek must be equitable, with no one group singled out to pay a higher price. — Ronald Reagan |  |  |
