Okay Buna This is Twofold....One Serious....One, Well, What You Should Expect.....And it Ain't Good....

 This is serious. 

The State of Texas has removed 1.3 million people from the voter rolls in the state in the last few weeks. That is a pretty large number.

If you've not voted in a while, or you are paranoid of any government entity like I am, you may want to check and see if you are still registered to vote. 

You can check at the Texas Secretary of State's website at this link.  

And remember the last day to register to vote is Monday, October 5, 2026.

-In the last 24 hours after the last blog, well, I have heard from more people concerning their kids and the Buna Schools.  

Kids want out, parents want the kids out, many urgently looking at another school in which to place their children. 

Some so disillusioned that their kids are going to schools that, well, I would not have sent Reid to on a bet. But desperate times sometimes call for desperate measures.  

Then, there are people trying to explain what is actually going on in the district be in the property tax rate,  those trying to explain why they are removing their kids from the district , getting criticized by the school district apologists. 

You must remember, the district employees a large number of people in the community. And they, their family want to keep receiving a paycheck from the district. 

As the Cantonese Chinese would say..." Don't want to break the rice bowl. " ( Outside of the Cantonese coastal areas of China, Hong Kong South, the Chinese mostly eat noodles as a staple. I spent a month in Kunming and this is how many times I had rice.....0 )

Right or in many cases, wrong, they will defend the district. 

And you got to remember, you yourself have to do what is right for your bottom line, your kids....You got to remember, how many people criticizing you, well, you were not going fishin' with them......You're not going to be sitting around a campfire with most of these people smoking an H. Upmann,  drinking a  couple of cool ones.....

Sometimes, you have to do what is right for you and your family. 

As one parent wrote me, their high school age student told them since they left Buna , " My mental health is so much better now." 

Then, there was this....From a couple of parents....Two separate school districts... 

" The teachers in the new district act professional." 

 Again, a school district is a taxing government entity. It really doesn't care about you or you kid in the end. ( Individual teachers actually do. It is why we teach...and many of us have a love/hate relationship with the district in which we work.)

Many of us know what the school district can be.....We saw it first hand.....It's why I write the blog.
