Sunday

Not only do we face the issue that if Trump gets his way by shutting down the school lunch programs a lot of kids won’t have anything to put A1 on, I’m starting to think we need to remove computers from K-6 education and go back to books and pencils.

Last night I put together the Sunday paper. Because there’s a delay between runs I was reading the Lifestyle section, which prints Thursday night and gets the inserts Friday morning, to kill time. The cover story was about a monastery, and the story jumped to the last page in the section where I found this jump head: MONESTERY. Uhh…dude, teach the Three R’s and when the kids can spell and find information without automation then introduce computers.
