"From this hour I ordain myself loos'd of limits and imaginary lines, going where I list, my own master total and absolute, Listening to others, considering well what they say, Pausing, searching, receiving, contemplating, Gently, but with undeniable will, divesting myself of the holds that would hold me."
Walt Whitman (1819-92)

Yeah, I know...
...the graphics for the site aren't appearing right. It seems there is a computer down in Kansas, and they are working on it right now. If you see my mug at the top, it's fixed...if not, it won't be long till it gets fixed.

Creepy Scott Reed, 34, is the dean of students, science teacher, and head football coach at Central Linn High School in Halsey, Ore. But maybe not for long: the Oregon Teacher Standards and Practices Commission may revoke his teaching credential. It has charged him with “gross neglect of duty” for his first aid treatment of several student athletes injured during play: he allegedly licked their bloody wounds clean. The county sheriff investigated and called the practice “bizarre,” but not illegal since the lickings were not forced, nor even “necessarily unwanted.” (Eugene Register-Guard) ...Huh: usually it’s the linebackers who are “out for blood.” Available in This is True: Book Collection Vol. 11
