Why the hell would rehab not start for 2 more weeks? You should be getting home health right now, then outpatient rehab once you're done with that.

Actually my daughter's been wheeling me around in a borrowed wheelchair! She thinks I overdid it playing volleyball.

You are not kidding. They really reach out and are willing to mentor newbies.....I did every embarassing thing possible during my last two visits there (including getting on the load with no alti) and people reached out to help every time.

17 jumps?!!!! Wow. 1000th skydive-congrats!! You have every reason to celebrate.

OK, I know the other 3 hotties involved aren't stepping up, but I will. He was AWESOME. I'm moving to England if they're all as good as he is.

0/0/0 Good productive weekend with other stuff though.

Are you saying one acid trip cured your depression? Or am I misunderstanding? I am in no way challenging or attacking, this is a serious question. I'm intrigued.

I think you have exactly captured the picture here. Even the other teachers know all is not well with his teaching skills. I have the utmost respect for teachers--meaning those who teach, not just look at it as a paycheck. Which, thank God, is most of the teachers out there. I could not do what they do, no matter what amount of money was paid to me. I have always known it takes a special soul to teach our youth, and I definately don't have what it takes. 99% of the teachers we've had have been amazing, dedicated, underpaid, underappreciated, gifted individuals. I make sure they know how very grateful I am for their talents. God (or whoever) bless you teachers!!!! There's just not adequate compensation for what you do.

Ah Jewels, (and you too Skycat) thanks for the support. Believe me, the ONE thing I'm not concerned about is my involvement in my daughter's life. 2500+ posts...yep. Guilty as hell. Today alone I've probably posted 20 times. I've also: walked to Starbucks this morning with my daughter so we could sit and talk watched a show with her she wanted me to watch attended her piano recital (in which she rocked!!) went to a movie with her right after the recital arrived home, grabbed blankets and jackets and walked to the local park to spend an hour listening to the Highlands Ranch Concert Band performing. The only reason we left after an hour is because it was over. Spending too much time on dz.com? Maybe. But certainly not at her expense.

lol Look carefully. I never once said my child had a bad grade in Algebra. I happen to be good at algebra, so it's not been a problem for her. She's been on the honor roll every semester this year. I am concerned about the teaching that's taking place for those that don't have the ability or financial resources to negate the effects of a lousy teacher. Have a great day, though.

Oh, and he's not a dz.commer, so I don't think I will get banned again for PA's!!

To be honest, I'm not particularly worried about my daughter's algebra grade. I'm worried about the number of kids coming out of that class not knowing what they need to know. It has been expressed to the administration, and I really believe the results of this year-end test will probably speak for themselves to the administrators. I just wanted to entertain a fantasy of telling him what an ass he is in no uncertain terms.

I like it!!

It's not about one class. Or one comment. Or one student. This has been his litany all year, yet he can give no concrete suggestions for what specifically they need to do. Work harder. That's his motto. I have spoken to the man, and I must say, I felt like he was talking in circles and saying absolutely nothing. And hearing absolutely nothing. If 4 out of 60 or 70 kids scored above a D, when does the teacher have some accountability?
-
Do you know what this one is called? All Gregg?
-
Yes, I believe a could. With this lighting and the way the water plays on your...seaweed....
-
Do you want the list? You aren't playing right. I was strangely compelled to watch that whole thing and yet I am completely confused. And a little turned on.

We've struggled with this guy all year long. He's a lousy teacher and he blames the kids for not doing well, rather than looking at his teaching skills. His latest-all of his classes underwent year-end testing to see what all they had learned/retained. This is what he said to the kids, "It's really sad that out of all of my classes, only 4 of you got grades of C- or better. This just goes to show that you need to be working harder and taking math seriously." Anyone have any messages for him? I'd really like to have him read this thread. I won't really do it, but indulge me anyone. Teachers? Parents? Got any comments?

Well of course I do. Who doesn't love Turtle?

Ooh, ooh, I wanna play!! Pick me!!

Now that's just not right. Dude, I've worked in a nursing home the last 7 years, and that image is a little too real for me!

here ya go, but picture them baggy and saggy
-
How about calling'em "Boxers". Because they aren't boxers?

I think so. I've been to 3 events so fat this year (both skydiving and aviation) and there's been accidents at all 3. So are you saying if you'd lose some weight there'd be fewer accidents?
