Oh yea we are in CA, NO ONE!

They’re saying it’s the spillway and not the dam itself. See Katrina 2005 for Official Canned Responses.

This is gonna make Katrina look like a kiddie wading pool if it all goes.

Unless I am mistaken on the dams, first they had issues with the spillway gates being able to open. Then the spillway itself was crumbling. They were trying to clean out the emergency back up spillway that had filled with dirt, shrubs and trees over the years.
The dam is doing just as it should.

Home School • Re: Home school Pros Vs. Cons…The dumbing down of our chil

I have to agree with you, especially here in Commiefornia.

I do believe they need the Socialization, friends.
We ended up sending my son to a private math class, he was failing the classes in school. He passed all of the private (smaller group, not PRIVATE), teachers all said he got it, understood just explained it in his style that the high school would not except.
He has a few teachers that he LOVES, they tend to be more conservative.
He is done in May, Thankfully.
