I fear the eradication of hate, and displays of it, is a much longer process than either of us would like, but it shouldn't keep us from getting up every morning and pushing the stone a little farther along the way.

When she saw me, she flashed a white supremacy hand signal at me.

Even brand-new TVs straight from the box often contain one or two dead pixels. On your TV screen, millions of pixels are active at once.

Terrific teachers but the physical plant was in shambles. <br />And that's something that was and remains true across all the facilities because no money is ever budgeted for maintenance, ever. <br />Neither of us, to my knowledge, has a time machine to go back to 2013 when construction costs were lower but you know what? Even if we did and pushed for construction then what would we have been told? Now ‘is not the right time to do it.’<br />Q.E.D.

(More or less...)"<br />Four NEW schools on the site of four existing schools...?!? In one budget item? and the "renovate or tear down and build a fifth new school..." does not give me a good feeling about what I am asked to approve...<br /><br />Also, this is not a situation that just "came up". The deterioration of these facilities didn't just happen, lately... It's been over years... And, the School Advisory Board should have recognized this over ten years ago, when new facilities construction costs was $165 per square foot (2013 national average...) Instead of waiting until now when National construction costs are more than $300 - $760! a Sq Ft...!<br /><br />Kicking the can down the road may release tensions at the time...
