Spread the [rather obvious] word:
“Mass school closings have become a hallmark of today’s dominant education policy agenda. But rather than helping students, these closures disrupt whole communities. And as U.S. Department of Education data suggests, the most recent rounds of mass closings in Chicago, New York City and Philadelphia disproportionately hurt Black and low-income students.”

“Hehehehe. We sure did beat the crap outta you Poles.”
“Hehehehe. Yeah, ya sure did. … Hey, wanna be Pope?”
Dougal for Pope. If there is any justice (or any god in the heavens), let it be Dougal. #FatherTed
Arcanthus Scolds His Darkmoon Monkey for Being a Very Bad Monkey on the Faire’s Boardwalk. That was one pissed-off gnome.
How could no one on Azeroth know this thing was floating around for over a 1,000 years?
If only our beagles were that talented …
It’s that time of year again … 24 hours of A Christmas Story. And visit the house here for more than you ever wanted to know about it all.

Before their eyes are even open, the three Beagle Boys posed for the cameras. Fred is on the left, Fergus in the middle, and Feargal on the right. March 2007.
Bayley Murphey as a puppy. 17-Oct-94, Plano, Texas.
Our favorite pic of the three Beagle Boys, in one of the few instances where all three were still for ½ a second together. From left are Fred, Fergus, and Feargal. Taken in California in 2007.
A favorite pic of Roux Royale, Bassett Hound of Extraordinary Destruction. He was rescued from the back roads of Roane County, west of Knoxville, by the excellent folks at Belly Rubs Bassett Rescue, and came to live with us in late September. He has thoroughly upended the peace of the house and the beagles have never been more active. Merry Christmas, you insane hound!
And one of my faves of Feargal (2007 – ). The Feargal Butt will also score tons of turkey tomorrow!
A classic look in the expressive eyes of Fergus (2007 – ). That look is going to score him tons of turkey tomorrow!
One of my favorite pics of Fredrik (2007-2012). It’s been four months and the pain of losing Fred-Fred to fast-moving cancer is still fresh.
One of my favorite Bayley Beagle (1994-2007) pics of all time. The pookus would be 18 years old now and we still miss him terribly.
All kinds of [original and funny, not recent and crappy] Simpsons win here.
