Because I am defending the use of comic books in the classroom as a legitimate and useful tool in promoting literacy and language arts.

This is awesome, Aims! It used to drive me crazy when I worked at the bookstore when parents would only let kids read "real books" instead of what interested them. It never seemed like a good way of encouraging children to enjoy reading.

trying out shiny new name

It is very shiny!

I don't remember who came up with it, but I know it was a Bitch!

It was me! Praising one of your anime haircuts. (I'm pretty sure.)

Sean, many hugs to you.

Love the new name, Glam!

I love to boooooo umpires and refs. I have never boooed a member of any team of which I am a fan. I HAVE booed pro players who have been thrown in jail for beating up their wives/girlfriends (Brett Myers, Lawrence Phillips, Wil Cordero, etc). Actually, I banned the 49ers from my brain the entire time they had Phillips on staff.

Glamcookie, what was your previous name? Did it perhaps also involve cookies, cookies of a more morose nature?

Yes, can you please put your old board name in your tag, so we know who you are, GC? I don't want to become confused and forget, you crazy name-changer.

Well see some name changes don't need taggage. Like Aims. I actually didn't realize at first she *had* changed it, my brain just translated on its own.

I've been Laga since my first day on the internet. Anybody remember initgame?

Huh, I thought it'd be totally obvious. Adjusted tag.

GC I was just asking for clarification. I didn't want to assume.

((sean)) ... From the train home. Woo what a day. I flickrd a pic of todays shoe but can't figure out how to link from here ... Its at the top of my photostream tho.

I'm all for sweet one letter name changes. And back turning vs booing but only in extreme situations. Sports is ok to boo if it is team sports.
