Lame Mc Joke
Paddy the famous Irishman is driving home after downing a few at the local pub. He turns a corner and much to his horror he sees a tree in the middle of the road.
He swerves to avoid it and almost too late realizes that there is yet another tree directly in his path. He swerves again and discovers that his drive home has turned into a slalom course, causing him to veer from side to side to avoid all the trees.
Moments later he hears the sound of a police siren and brings his car to a stop. The officer approaches Paddy’s car and asks him what on earth he was doing.
Paddy tells his story of the trees in the road when the officer stops him mid sentence and says, “For heaven’s sake, Paddy, that’s yer air freshener!”
funny. kinda.

Administration Proposes Same-Sex-School Option
By DIANA JEAN SCHEMO
WASHINGTON, March 3 — The Bush administration has proposed regulations giving public school districts new freedom to create same-sex classes and schools, as long as "substantially equal" opportunities are also provided for the excluded sex.
Supporters and critics alike said the proposed changes represented a major reinterpretation of antidiscrimination laws, some 50 years after the Supreme Court discredited racial segregation in "separate but equal" schools as inherently unequal, and 30 years after Title IX extended the concept to sex.
Under the new rules, educators could create new schools or classes exclusively for students of one sex, and no longer have to demonstrate that they were doing so to remedy past discrimination. In addition, rather than having to ensure that students of the other sex were receiving the same opportunities in a single-sex setting, the new rules would allow them to provide those opportunities in a co-ed setting.
Permit me to suggest that the administration has "same-sex" a bit too much on the brain. this is just ridiculous. Bush better start getting ready for some gay proms, too, while he's at it.
Sadie Hawkins sidebar: I didn't know she was such a looker. Not Sophie B. Hawkins or anything, but what're you gonna do?
