That's bullshit schools can have dress codes the government can't legislate a dress code there's a difference (not that I agree or disagree with this one, it's silly to me no matter which side the court ruled) Edit: whoops - this is a banner, not a t-shirt. nevermind, I care even less. Just another justification for abortions through the 249th month. The kid probably has zero clue what he's talking about and is either trying to be a smart ass, or impress a girl. or both. (both being perfectly good reasons to do most anything) ... Driving is a one dimensional activity - a monkey can do it - being proud of your driving abilities is like being proud of being able to put on pants Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't read much about this since it was in the news several months ago.So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!
