It was a journey I learned a lot of good information from. I feel sorry for the generations that do not have any interest in this material. They do not teach it in schools anymore.

    My youngest daughter just completed her 19th year of teaching in primary school I was talking to her a while back and her biggest complaint is that the school libraries have been reduced to little more than what she calls leftist propaganda literature. I said well Mudd you have your masters why not use it and run for principal then you might have a little more sway to get things done. She said that she still loves teaching the younger students hoping to instill some real life values in their minds before they venture into the higher grades. Then I reminded her that when I was in school our principals all taught several periods as well as carrying out the duties of admin, and even her high school superintendent was the girls PE coach. To this she informed me that in their school district you are either a teacher or a member of the establishment there is no possibility of duel roles. So I asked her why she even bothered to get her master's nothing but dead silence for a couple of minutes then the subject got changed.
