Don't you mean Alabama?

Also, did you even read the article?

yes. It's a state with an A in the name that I've visited, but probably wouldn't want to live in. Close enough.

Kind of why I asked. We have weird rules in my local county (Hamilton County, Ohio) as well. People are so weird about this stuff.

BBQ: That I've Visited, but wouldn't want to live in.

I've love Alaska, it's freaking cold. However, I have never visited.

And Jarre and Murphie, apparently you missed the joke.

Oh, it's Alabama, why am I not surprised? I went to high school in Columbus, GA (right on the AL border) and pretty much that whole region is the most uptight, conservative christian area on the face of the earth. They wouldn't let them teach sex ed in schools down there (abstinence was the only "school endorsed" sex education, which worked like a charm), yet they wondered why the teenage pregnancy rate down there was through the roof while I was in high school. Also, got to spend 2 weeks in Biology class learning about creationism, and when I refused to take the test (a Biology test on creationism, it was great) I got the first and only "F" of my entire academic career. I complained to my vice principal, and she told me I was being disrespectful and that I needed to be more open to "other people's views". Anyways, I wasn't too pissed, it was the only time my mom was like "yeah, I'd rather you take the F"...

Gotta love the deep south, I'm so glad I got the hell out of there and moved back north where I belong ^^

Alaska rocks, my parents retired up there in Fairbanks and I would seriously move there in a second if the cost of living wasn't so high and it wasn't so isolated. The winter's do suck, but honestly, it's almost worse here in WI where I live now...the cold up there is a "dry cold" without much wind, so -40 aint nearly as bad as you would think. WI, on the other hand, only gets to the negative teens usually, but it's windy and wet as a sonofabitch, so that -12 feels like -285. Anyways, yeah, visit Alaska, especially if you like hiking and nature and such, it really is pretty much the last true "wilderness" in the U.S.

Oh, and yeah, I got the joke ^^

Man, that sucks, quick, disguide your wiimote as a "health/educarional device" and they cant take it away and lock you up!

Fun fact, now that effedup mentioned it: I've lived in Kansas *and* Georgia, and I find the public schools in both of them completely laughable. Although my teacher in Georgia pretty much ignored the little green stickers, and the one in Kansas never touched on biology at all, the schools overall were just plain silly a lot of the time.

Then again, most public schools are from what I've heard.

Yeah, I grew up in Philly, and I tested above average on standardized tests, nothing crazy, but...move to Georgia in 9th grade and they are like "ZOMG YOU ARE A FREAKIN GENIUS!!!!" I graduated in North Carolina and something like 40% of the seniors that year failed the reading comprehension portions of the graduation test, and they were at an 8th grade level. How sad is that...

I know I've mentioned it before, but when I was in 9th grade (my last grade before graduating), I was the only person in my English class with an A. And this wasn't an advanced course, I was too lazy to sign up for one of those. One day, we had to write a short story, and have a classmate review them. I was going through a painful one someone else had written, marking corrections for him and such, when he says that "'Tis" isn't a word. After a large amount of me telling him to stop acting stupid, I pull out a dictionary and plop it down on his desk, to which he replies "... that's pronounced 'Tiz', not 'Tiss'!". Palmforehead.

He also complained about how the story "made no sense", to the point where another class mate read it, and then another... Sadly, I think only one girl actually understood it. Maybe two or three at best. And I'm no genius.

When I was in Georgia, I distinctly remember coming home one day with a report card with mostly As and a couple Bs. Sitting on the bus, I heard another kid bragging about getting all Ds.

To say that public schools are anything less than a failure is an understatement, imo.
