I apologize to a number of you. I am way behind on blogs concerning Buna ISD....
I know, I know..... I've not forgotten about you. Actually several of you. Part of it is, I am trying to get as much readership as I can on the topic.
There are times during the year in which people just do not read the blog, and sometimes I publish blogs /articles that I feel are pretty darn important and well, they are time sensitive, and I publish them anyway....
Some of you think I am mad at you,and/or I have deleted you from the blog, my Facebook group, friends, etc.
I have not. It is just that your subject which you sent to me well, I want maximum hits/readership and from May until the start of school, people really don't care about Buna ISD....or any other school.
Yes, the blog from a couple of days ago had fairly good hits, but they did not get as many I they would during the school year, and trust me, there will be people write me in the Fall, more than you know, asking why I have not written a blog about why there are no longer cell-phones allowed to be used by kids in the schools, during school hours? Never mind I've written on the topic in June, and then again, before school started....During the school year, readership on schools increases 25-55%.
Secondly, I have caught more flak from people in the last 6-8 months from people concerning, well, whatever....the schools, politics, the economy....literally whatever.
And some of the emails/messages/PMs have been ugly and I have just deleted them, blocked them. I don't have to put up with abuse. I don't.
A while back I had to get rid of a former student who attacked me on my religious beliefs. Called me a Catholic because I have friends who are Catholics. I have family who are Catholics. And people wonder why that person has been either married or lived with different people , on last count, 7-8 different people.
I have friends who are Catholic I love dearly, and I hope they pray for me at the time of my death....And I don't even want to know how they feel about my love of people who are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints. As many of you know, I grew up with Mormon kids, and would rather hang out with Mormons than most of you Baptists.
Other Problems...
-Don't be shocked if the Israel/Iran War flares up again this Summer, or later in the Fall.
- NYC is going to elect a Socialist/Communist as their next Mayor. Again, this country is going to come apart, either one political direction or the other, and don't hope it happens. It'll be so ugly...
- The economy is worse than you know. More people I know either cannot find work, or the work they find pays poorly, and I know people who have sent out 150+ resumes.
- People, don't be using people for sex. Don't let them think you are ' in love with them" just so you can use than for a " Piece of ass." You're playing with someone's emotions for your pleasure. I may write a blog on you and tell folks what a piece of crap you are....Let that person down easy if you are just playing a game.
- Preachers, preach the Gospel, remember the "Great Commission" stop using the pulpit for politics.
- My 50th Reunion is tomorrow evening, and as I said earlier, I am not going. I got a bit depressed thinking about how awful high school when I was there. I got upset hoping I treated everyone the same when I was teaching. Yeah, I was at time rough, but I tried to treat everyone the same, no matter your name, and it actually hurt my career. But I feel good about what I did.
-Yeah, I know it's supposed to be " Just a Job" but teaching sometime you get emotionally tied.....Right now, I have a former student not in the state i am very worried about. His friend, former students so mine, well, when you read this, take care of him. He needs all our help.
- I almost bough another Ralph Lauren Sports Coat. Grey with Checks......But where would I wear it?
- I have other items I need to write short blurbs on, need to save them for later.
Have a good weekend folks....
