The crazy musings of what I think is funny!

Just in case you didn't know.

No wonder my joy stick couldn't
maneuver my boss to write me a $1000 company check... Life is not a video game!



Ahhhhhhhhhhh look at the cute activist high school students.

In response to troubling incidents involving student violence at high schools, Fontana, California high school's students and faculty members decided to do something about it.

They've declared November 13-18th "Anti-Violence Week" at A.B. Miller high school. Part of on the campus festivities where they will be having special activities to help promote peace.. One activity included students tied ribbons on the school fence spelling out, "Life is Not a Video Game."

I would have gone with “The TV is not a Babysitter” but hey, that's just me.

"We're trying to get the message out to people: Once you shoot someone, that's it. You can't go back in time and undo it," said Jacklyne Aceves, one of the Miller drama students.

Ummm by the time you reach High School, I would think or at least hope any kid has figured this out. Especially since bulling starts in middle school and busts in high school.

No no no - It must be those damn video games!

Monday was "Dead Day", where popular kids dressed all in black and didn't speak to anyone. Hmm sounds a lot like how I spent my high school lunch hours, except without the black $40 Gap t shirts. I wonder if they wore trench coats?

I think a better Dead Day would have been if they asked their friends to voice all of their faults and make up a few so that could they feel a small percentage of what it really is like.

Activities could include

Book to garbage toss contest

Best clothing insult

Best made up rumor

Backpack snatch relay

Ohhh and 5 inch toe –heel boot running contest or dance off. This way they kids who can do it well can laugh at them for once.

The finale to the week's events is the live performance of William Mastrosimone's controversial but honest one-act play, "Bang! Bang! You're Dead." The play tells the story of a Columbine-like incident at a school. "It shows what it would be like if you were dead and your voice couldn't be heard," said Shelley Flores.
