Do You Remember Your School Daze?
I still have nightmares about being unprepared for school tests. Would dream analysts interpret that as meaning I don’t feel in control of my life or that I have a fear of failure? Maybe I just need to be better prepared for blood tests and eye tests.
I went to an all girls’ school - white blouses, blue skirts and brown oxfords. The only time I got away with makeup was for missed tests.
I didn’t like math. I didn’t like subjects that had exact answers - subjects with no wiggle room. History didn’t have wiggle room. I didn’t understand the importance of learning specific dates. Who remembers them? When I was studying history, the only important dates were on weekends.

Your Bad Olympic Experience
Watching the Winter Olympics from Torino isn’t all that glorious. Take curling for example. Take it and send it back to Scotland. Throw it back in the loch.
At least, there should be no men teams in curling. The American Men’s Team is so lousy one player just curled a stone that didn’t pass the red line and was rejected. The shot before that was 10 yards in front of the bull’s-eye. I haven’t seen one woman make such rotten shots. Leave the game to the ladies and leave it out of the Olympics.
