School was never like this...

Speaking of education, a story in the Houston Chronicle reports that an assignment given to high school freshman to study Internet pornography was cancelled after the school received parental complaints. (What a shocker!)

And to think, when I was a freshman, I spent so much time doing things like proving geometric theorems, dissecting fetal pigs and reading The Odyssey.

I wonder if such curricula are part of the promotion of "anti-sexism" apparently encouraged by many education schools. (See yesterday's rant.)

Song lyric of the day:
"Everybody, everybody, everybody living now
Everybody, everybody, everybody sucks
It's a non-stop disco
Bet you it's Nabisco
Bet you didn't know"
