I Believe... [GenX Bliss]
I believe… that one of the current thrills of being GenX today is that I couldn’t give two shits about what’s going in any university, with Teen Vogue, or the Grammies.
I, Superhero
The past few summers have set the stage for what some call "too many superhero movies." I just this week went to Spiderman: Homecoming with Ray (I loved it) and am looking forward to Justice League as well as The Defenders on Netflix, Thor: Ragnarok, Black Panther, Gotham City Sirens, etc. I love these multiverses for a variety of reasons.
But Moore, the cracked genius behind Watchmen, V for Vendetta and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, cannot be easily dismissed.
I’m not going to argue that teachers and school staff don’t need appreciation. They are important players in our children’s lives. Highly influential for good and ill. But there are a few problems I come up against with Teacher Appreciation Week. Those problems are time, effort, and even money.
