Love him or hate him, he sure hits the nail on the head with this! To anyone with kids of any age, here's some advice.
Bill Gates recently gave a speech at a High School about 11 things they did not and will not learn in school. He talks about how feel-good, politically correct teachings created a generation of kids with no concept of reality and how this concept set them up for failure in the real world.
Rule 1 : Life is not fair - get used to it!
Rule 2 : The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.
Rule 3 : You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.
Rule 4 : If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.
Rule 5 : Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your
Grandparents had a di fferent word for burger flipping: they called it opportunity.
Rule 6 : If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them.
Rule 7 : Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.
Rule 8 : Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades and they'll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the righ t answer. This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.
Rule 9 : Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time.
Rule 10: Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually
have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.
Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.
If you agree, pass it on.
If you can read this - Thank a teacher!
If you are reading it in English -Thank a soldier!
This one is priceless!
I am reading these and LMAO. Actually have tears running down my cheeks. Sure needed these this morning. Although I am finding way too much common sense.
priceless! lol
Do your boys still remember that? I would not have been able to keep a straight face!
ABSOLUTELY PRICELESS...
Don't wanna spoil for anybody that hasn't seen it yet, but oooh...so FUNNY... Steph and Donna.... I personally think Stephanie is hilarious....
Time will be priceless! sm
Great time of year to share yourself! Wrap up a new game, take some snacks and you and your husband spend time with them! At their age your time with them will be priceless!
priceless! I would have bet money
NO Transcriptionist ever actually won! Guess I would have lost that one, too!
I use my credit card!!!! Priceless!
Actually it was an expired one. Hubby laughed. I use Dawn Power Disolver in the blue bottle. Works wonders. Then IF I have to scrape I have used the credit card of course, but fine metal spatula or a razor, but I use one of those like you scrape paint with that has the handle like an ice scraper.
Thought this was priceless...wanted to share
Doctor just dictated this:
"I listened to the dictated report on the phone, but the radiologist speaks so quickly I cannot determine exactly what she said about FDG avidity of these lymph nodes."
And I bet he has you laughing, too
do not care for zebras (saw some really mean ones 1 day attacking their own, kicking and killing it, really surprised me, and hynenas, nasty, scavengers, yuck, and also those crazy big animals that play follow the leader and cross the crocodile ladened waters only to get eaten alive. I love the baby animals but the ones above I can do without.
I'm not laughing
My brother says Tony got hit - the look on his face at the end says it all, according to him. I don't see it that way - I think he just looks up to see Meadow coming through the door.
I for one feel ripped off. I went to the HBO website and sent an email to David Chase to that effect, stating I would not buy any Sopranos DVD or other merchandise, and that never in the future would I watch anything with David Chase's name on it.
After a decade of being a faithful fan to that show, he's too lazy to wrap up the loose ends at the final show. I hope he chokes on some French wine and cheese.
I'm laughing now, too!
Thanks! One time I saw him at the blinds in his living room which overlooks our porch. His light was on, and it was dark. I was on the porch with my brother, and Hermie was peaking out the blinds at me!!! He looked about 8 feet tall! That is right after I moved in! Anyone with an empty house or apartment for me???? Batless, preferably!
I am laughing!
Being younger than 80 and older than 50, these posts crack me up! I would NEVER want a little old man, I have one and that is more than I can handle as they get needier and needier. They want to tell you how to fold the clothes, how to do the dishes. They are bored when they are old and try to take over domestic stuff and get in your face, so a man is out. I hate scarves, etc. I love Pizza! I would like an Ipod gift card! Or, I would like a coupon for a lunch out, an unusual plant, a pedicure, a movie ticket, a makeover, a cool pair of slippers (I like them when I am typing), and I see lots of stuff at the antique store that I love that are fairly inexpensive in the part of the store where the linens are - like old cool tablecloths, dish towels, pillowcases etc. because they remind me of my mother and aunts and now that I am "old" I like them. I also like stationery and cooking stuff like cookbooks, utensils, etc. Just my 2 or so cents.
Laughing Out Loud.

I am sitting here laughing at both of you
What martyrs you sound like, working at night so you can be there always for those children, not a boyfriend so to put those kids first, sacrificing. I could almost throw up listening to all the people talking about their being a single mother, and? so? It is like a badge of honor. Women have raised children for long years before these days and did not bend over backwards trying to sacrifice, just part of raising children. I was a latchkey kid, my kids also (oh, guess what- I actually had to work away from the home in earlier years!!) and my grandchildren were latchkey kids. We ALL turned out alright, no gangsters, no murderers, upstanding people. The reason kids are out of control now is the way you pamper, pet and sit the kids on marshmellows and do not let them be real kids. Kids get hurt, part of life. You need to say you are sorry for the post about not watching her kid 24/7, ridiculous! And get a real life besides the children. There are other things in life, really there are.
You got that right! I was half laughing and (sm)
crying when he did the "Crying" song with the turtle last week! Piers shot right out of his chair on that one! I voted for him about 12 times or so altogether. My nephew's wife voted for him 10 times three different ways. . phone, computer and different phone.
Laughing at myself...I saw a UFO, but not superstitious! LOL (sm)
just suddenly struck me as funny :-)
I can't stop laughing....
Do you have any idea how much you will be paying in taxes if tobacco and alcohol are made illegal? Who do you think pays for the sin tax - the users of alcohol and tobacco. If they want to abuse it, fine by me as it does not affect me. Once it is made illegal, it affects me big time with taxes.
one meaning LOL=laughing out loud.....
Laughing? That judge is a moron.
Glad you found his humor to be comical.
Weigh too much, laughing as I read
because that is exactly what I tell even my physician if they want to weigh (which I do not, by the way!) because figure unless I am getting anesthesia and they want to make sure about amount, do not really need to know that. Just take a guess..
I am laughing as I read your post
you are saying Tina with her ole self is better than the younger Beyonce. Oh, now I am splitting my sides, he, he, he, he, he.....Tina used to break it down but she has got too much age on her now- she should have stayed retired and the way we remembered her.
I cannot stop laughing! You mean you actually expect me to SM
keep the SAME PICTURE??? LOL! At least if I endure this today I have a slight CHANCE of a better one!! 
I live in PA. . . not sure of my options, but I'm headin' for the mirror right now to FIX STUFF!!!
