A report I wrote in 1969. "Winter is the coldest season. The earth moves away from the sun farthest in that season." WHAT!? Wow, was I wrong! What a dumb kid I was! Everyone knows axial tilt is the reason for the seasons!

"WARNING: The WRCSB is voting Monday on a motion that would ban pride flags, slogans, and symbols from being hung or shown (even on a sticker!) on school property. Even teacher's personal flags would not be allowed.

Please show up on Monday to show support!"

I will add that their motion also erases Indigenous Peoples by saying the Canadian flag represents all. Kitchener is on the Haldimand Tract, the stolen, occupied territory of Six Nations.

The proposed school, St. Isidore of Seville #Catholic Virtual School, was pitched as an online #CatholicSchool for students in rural areas & throughout the state of #Oklahoma, w/ #religious instruction woven throughout the #curriculum.

But instead of operating as a #PrivateSchool w/ #families paying tuition, St.Isidore applied for status as a #CharterSchool, a type of #PublicSchool that is financed by #taxpayer dollars, but run independently.

Spotted this cutie pie while at a stoplight (phone was handy, no turkeys were in danger of getting hit).

What caught my eye were the two red doors on the wings (it was a long light). The one on the left is labeled "Girls" and the one on the right is "Boys".

How fun--it's an old school building, with separate entrances!

Raise your hand if you went to Catholic school, got packed off to church for Ash Wednesday, and had to listen to this on an endless loop while you stood in line to get those ashes smeared on your face.
