George Harrison's "(Got My Mind) Set On You" came on the radio yesterday, and a thought occured to me. I loved that video when I was a kid. It had the singing animal heads in the weird cabin. I remember clearly a time when I used to wish for more songs and videos from George Harrison. I could never ...

Jones - love your idea, with small changes. Make sure a student has mastered most subjects at a certain grade level before advancing them. In your model, a student may be at the 7th grade reading level, while still doing math at a 1st grade level. Rather than have the student continue advancing on o...

Gimme Rubber Soul, Revolver, OK Computer, or Sgt. Pepper over anything by Oasis ever.

Oasis is ok if I'm in the right mood, but some albums are just great all the time.

I'm guessing half the cops who've given him DUIs aren't even on the forc...
