Alright
Tap the lightpole and we'll be jammin all night
And ain't nobody callin' the cops
'Cause everybody's here freakin', if they're older they're doin the rock
And every block from all around
Comes runnin' to the park when they hear the sound
And soon the word's spreadin' through our part of town
"Yo, 40 Park y'all, Jam-On's gettin down"
Yeah...

If you had one leg being pulled by reality, and one leg being pulled by spirituality, where would that leave you, huh?
Boy was he clueless.
I guess he would not consider the invention of Jazz and Rock N' Roll music. And where was his country's love of expressions of human spirit when they decided to terminate Jews, Gays, Gypsies, etc.?
I love the summer months!
We are reading our first (of two) novels based on the Holocaust in one of my classes. We are also watching Uprising in 20 minute segments every day. Hitler was brilliant and had much luck on his side. He was still a complete moron, though. Fuck him.
As we read our second novel (Night), we will also begin watching segments of The Pianist.
We also do a mini-unit on Religion.
My students NEVER take history lightly after being with me for three years straight.
Louis-- he only loved good German music. Hitler has had some points on things, though... not that I really care. Everyone is right once in a while.
History is great.
So patience... is nothing...
I wish I actually taught history class.
