CHILDREN’S CHORES NEED DEFENDING? In Defense of Chores.  Though to be fair, I raised my sons according to my principles.  I neither believed they should get paid for nothing, nor did I believe they should do chores without pay.  So instead of an allowance we had a table of prices.  Cheap, because they were unskilled labor (very.) And if one of them had a fat bank account by 10 and the other didn’t, well, that was none of my business.  The lesson seems to have gone home for both of them.  They work hard for what they want.

IN THE EMAIL, FROM MICHAEL A. HOOTEN: We Are All Enlisted.

AH, THIS EXPLAINS THE EAGERNESS TO SEE MICHAEL MOORE’S HIT PIECE RELEASED: Dead even.  Not that it will help them.  I don’t think anyone but the most craven partisans believe Michael Moore anymore.

THIS IS MY SHOCKED FACE: Project Include Sends A Message.  That message is that those who think differently need not apply.
