From what I understand this is simply a way to keep track of whether the kids lunch program is paid for. I suppose we can make it about the "mark of the beast" or something, but I'm afraid it's not. The kid ISN'T "getting fingerprinted." His own fingerprints are being used to verify that he's who he is. I'm worried abot a lot of things, but this isn't one of them. I'm REAL worried about people twisting little things to look more ominous than they are though. Makes it too easy to ignore the real scary stuff. posted by: kinghavoc (reply) post date: 10.21.07 (12:26 am) Reply to: surrogate I appreciate your comment and I see your point. I just see it as pointless. Some one is still going to have to notice the kid isn't eating just like before the system so it just doesn't make sense to me. posted by: surrogate (reply) post date: 10.21.07 (12:48 am) Reply to: kinghavoc When my kids were3 in school, they had to be checked off when they went through the line, and if I'm not mistaken, they even kept track of whether the kids chose "lunch a," or "b." I forget why they did this, but I remember it making sense to me at the time - something about planning future menus, maybe - but I also remember some of the parents complaining about that too. Who knows, maybe it's all paving the road to armengeddon, or the rapture. I say if it is? -Let it happen now and let's get it over with. I've scheduled a consult with the almighty to petition a reprieve to those of us who don't buy in, and from what I understand, it's being taken under advisement if Paul would just shut up his screaming about his dream being literal. Damn fella didn't like much about anyone's take on things except his own... and look, he spawned a hundred generations of people who think just like he did....

Did he really say that? I knew he was out of his mind, but, damn he's probably right about that. Notice, all he cared about in the statement was that everyone would believe it. No mention that the beliefs became any truer - meaning he understood perfectly the magnitude and scope of his own bullshit. Yipes! posted by: kinghavoc (reply) post date: 10.21.07 (5:30 am) Reply to: surrogate Yah i saw it in this PBS Frontline reports called "Cheney's Law" pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/cheney/view/ posted by: Idetrorce (reply) post date: 12.15.07 (8:43 am) very interesting, but I don't agree with you Idetrorce |
