As an example, I have been teaching a ten year old child, and his favorite excuse to not learn something, is to say "I can't". It can be discouraging.<br />--<br />JerryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-55748533205823586172010-08-22T10:56:39.569-04:002010-08-22T10:56:39.569-04:00@Anon 10:01 am August 22, that is a popular idea a...@Anon 10:01 am August 22, that is a popular idea at John Robb's place too.

Being a ...Not really a comment, but here i'tis. Being a backward, slack-eyd man of the South, the thought of anything about J- Ed's alley just weird's me plum out. I don't have a need to know that. I do think that this wiki dumb-ass is trying to make a dollar by exposing the mistakes made by, for all intents and purposes, the US. I am very tired of that. If I turn on my TV, what I hear, and see, is just another reason for me to be wrong. I don't care which station, channel, website,etc.... I am always wrong. The truth is, I don't give a rat's ass, if you want the gov to redeem your right to be a human being, go ahead. You will learn. <br />JerryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-4599134051614041082010-08-21T20:29:21.743-04:002010-08-21T20:29:21.743-04:00No, Cointelpro is alive and well, though who knows...No, Cointelpro is alive and well, though who knows what they call it now.
