The Stimulus Package was made to devalue the US Dollar. It amazes me at how ignorant most people are to politics. I think most people read an article out of the paper, watch a news story on TV or read Yahoo news and think they are...

edgyk8inmomma When you first begin using it takes some time. Your mind isn't used to making the connections in this manner. But, just like anything else new, pafter a while it will become second nature. After you are used to making these connections, it becomes automatic. I...

I failed 2 courses in high school (math, physics), but I graduated with honour roll.

edgyk8inmomma Yes, but there some extenuating circumstances that lead to it. And then I ended up dropping out, because I could not deal with having to retake so many things that I felt no need to take... I went back and got my GED and am now in college... Where I ended up...

edgyk8inmomma Rush? No, haste makes waste...right? But that doesn't mean we should all just sit around hoping the answer will come to us. It is time for action, and big action at that. I think that too much rush will cause a lot of trouble, but not enough will bring about a...

edgyk8inmomma What exactly do you propose this truth will set us free from? If all of the things you say will happen are as set in stone as you say they are...than what exactly do you propose the American people do? I agree that foundations have been laid for such a...

edgyk8inmomma Well, I can offer some tips, but that doesn't mean you need to take me word for word. The Creative Curriculum format is very similar to the way I try to plan. My preschoolers range from 2 to 4/5, so I keep my "teaching" to a minimum. I see myself as more of a...
