After
the two men conferred, they called upon the Commander of Ft.
Huachuca.
The men came with a simple idea and it was this: many officers worked
at the post and many lived in town, so this was affecting their
children who were missing school. The men asked the Commander of

Fort if he would ask the officer's wives to commit to come in and cross
the picket lines and keep the local schools open, for the betterment of
the community. The idea was a sound one because many officer
wives
held college degrees. In fact so many volunteers stepped up to
become
a working substitute until the strike was over that there were enough

When Teachers Strike: A Memoir

Reflecting
on the Wisconsin teacher strike yesterday, and Democrats skipping
across
the border to avoid a vote on budget cutting, like you I
thought "PATCO them." Fire every single teacher who doesn't go
back to work. But, I am nothing if not a realist when it suits

"public home school. Voila. Lo and behold When
Teachers Strike: A Memoir is the first thing across me desk
this morning. It's cosmic.
As far as the truant democrats go, if they were republicans, and the
Governor a democrat, he'd find a way to fine them $10,000 a day. Just saying.
