It's been a while since I wrote anything of merit on here. Most times I post just for the sake of posting. But, I suppose I can whip up something today.

Generex, which I haven't checked today, is the depletor of my checking account. Lol. I thought I had canceled the sale, but it went through anyway. So, I'm the proud owner of several shares of Generex stock. GNBT, is the stock symbol if your interested in looking it up. I considered it for several reasons, the biggest being the onset of Avian Influenza...

I'm in the process of designing a new electrolysis unit, which when finished will offer a 300% increase in reactable surface area than the current plate design. The design, which uses rods instead of plates, seems to be a first, as searches of the patent databases have turned up nothing. The basics of the devices is there are two acrylic plates, which are 2" x 2" x 0.25" whose interior sides are placed 6" from each other. 441 nickle rods are put through the plates in a manner where they are all equidistant from each other. Opposing charges are supplied to every other electrode, and magic happens. Most designs for electrolysis units involve the charging of plates... which just seems like wasted space to me.

Anyway, something big is happening at school, and I don't know what. The administration, school committee, town councilors, and at least one attorney were in one of the sped rooms. Mrs. Mouneimneh (Moo-Name-Knee), the greatest English teacher of all time, is completely out of sorts. I'm tempted to say that it's the Basketball Pool which make Agawam the laughing stock of America that caused the houpla, but Mrs. Mouneimneh wouldn't get all stressed out about that.

She, much like myself, is so fed up with the way things are being run at the school that she'll probably consider an early retirement. In a way, I'm happy that I am not the only person who hates the school. I used to love school... in about fourth grade. It is such a disaster over there.

Part of this experience has really tought me to understand the fundamentals of terrorists. Now, many of us associate the word terrorist with turbans, but let's look back. The Bostonians who broke onto merchant ships docked in Boston Harbor to protest the tax on tea were terrorists. I consider terrorism as the use of destructive forces to have your thoughts heard. Now, I am not condoning terrorism, as it usually does more harm than good. But, the center office is staffed by the most block-headed, ignorant leeches that ever walked the earth. I know, because I used to intern there. Most people have partial interactions with the office when they sign in tardy or something like that, but I've worked with them, and seen how they operate. They are so obsessive about not getting sued that they are crushing freedom and education.

We don't take field trips anymore because there is too much liability. This is a perfect example of how the C.Y.A. mentality is causing education to suffer. Students cannot leave campus because someone, somewhere decided that in the event of an accident, the school is liable. School gets sued, hilarity ensues.

Let's take a look back at the office staff, shall we? Nay, we'll start at the top and work our way down.

Dr. Mary Cjackoffski
I've had limited interactions with her, but I've heard good, bad and ugly about her. And, while we're at it, I've seen the ugly about her. I don't know what she thinks she is doing with her crazy Medusa blonde curly nest of doom, but it has got to go. She is the Saab driving, husbandless, fit woman that everyone assumes is a big lez. Whatever her orientation maybe, she seems two faced. She seems as though when she inherited the Agawam Public School System from that other corrupt guy, whose name escapes me at the moment, she had to change everything to validate her job. Dr. Ameruso, was his name.

Dr. Linda J. Prystupa
A puppet. It seems as though she's always aspired to be a highly-paid school official. She can follow the leprechauns and unicorns all the way there, because she's not going to find it. She can't handle the power of running a school. She's too biased and unfair to run a public education facility. I've had issues that I've tried to bring up with her, and she dismisses them and me as an unruly, ignorant child. She's insulted me unintentionally a half dozen times of the top of my head. She seems like she's trying to teach students to be followers and not leaders. She imposes rules, and hopes that we get used to being oppressed by someone.

Mrs. Scheve
She ran the school. Now that she's gone, the school is literaly going to the dogs.

Mrs. Kelley
She seems like the type of person that was always kissing Mrs. Scheve's ass, but secretly, in the confines of her closet wished horrible things upon her in hopes that she could someday rule the Agawam High School Center Office. She's so by-the-book that it hurts. She has the type of pleasantness about her, where you just know that she's fake. I can't stand her.

Mrs. Kana
She seems kinda clueless. And what the hell is she wearing?! Some days she has the craziest outfits on. I think the next time I go in there, she'll don a hat made of fruit, and a white Island dress. But, all she seems to be able to do is answer the phones and to tell visitors how to sign in. I've asked her things, and she just directs me to one of the other secretaries, or to a VP. In addition to being clueless about school, she seems clueless about life. I imagine that she wakes up, she takes 500mg of Valium, and gets ready to greet the day apathetically.

Nameless-Red-Haired-Half-Day-Lady
I think she might be an intern, but she's only there for half of the day, in the morning. She, like Kana, is absolutely clueless about school policies. She is also quite nasty.
