Mild Rants

 The Boston Massachusetts United States of America High School Teen Ager you see in the pixelated picture below, was belligerently disruptive during an American Airlines flight. He and 45 other Winthrop graduates defiantly defied COVID protocol  refusing to mask and physically distance stressing out airline attendants and law abiding passengers who were denied their right to travel to vacation hot spot in Bahamas.  The chaperone hired by the parents of the spoiled brats failed to control the unruly, clamorous, standoffish and aggressively disrespectful immature, "don't give a damn about anybody but myself young adults".   The Daily Mail article by Emily Crane called for readers to email newsUS@dailymail.com with the names of any of the loutish punks who caused the cancellation of flight 893 from Charlotte, North Carolina!!

She interpreted an email containing the phrase "you go girl" as threatening for some reason. A colleague named Parini Shi...

Having said that, I doubt that Jennifer Bet-David's husband would  feel too sorry for the whining, "poor pitiful me" tone of the following account of a young man who feels mathematics exists solely to torment him. My sophomore year math teacher in Brownfield Texas helped me turn the corner and I was able to pass  the math sequence which helped me to become a CPA   I hate math. Never has a topic in school made me feel this worthless, hopeless, and sometimes suicidal. Never has a school subject left me so confused. Never had a school subject made me feel so much rage towards myself and unfortunately my current teacher. Currently I am struggling really badly with math, and I hate the fact that I am. It all just confuses me so damn much and I wish it didn’t. I’m able ...
