I had to explain Cal Worthington to my son a few months ago. It was fantastic. He still sings “go see Cal go see Cal go see Cal” every once in a while.

Absolutely! It’s disgusting yet powerful when you understand how rhetorical devices are used. Unfortunately, I still fall victim to marketing campaigns and get suckered into buying things I don’t need. But don’t we all?

I taught rhetoric in high school English using Aristotle, Monroe, Johnathan Edwards, and founding fathers’ writings. Then we’d jump to present day commercials and politics. I taught from 2007-2017. Students were baffled by how often and how easily they were manipulated through words.

Switch VPs, I’m pretty sure there’s a way…

I’ve been saying this since the day after the election! The GOP doesn’t have a hold on the cult w/o 47, they needed him to get their hooks in the WH. Now that they’re in, they are letting him implode. But Vance isn’t the golden boy they were hoping for. Wouldn’t be surprised if they swap VPs first.

You are an absolute inspiration. May your colleagues see your leadership and join in the fight. We need more of you and this in our elected officials. Keep at it good sir!

Yep, definitely not shopping there like I used to. But we’re trying to cut back overall. Our overconsumption has gotten out of control.

It’s so good!

Had a wonderful time attending our first NPS event and can’t wait for next year!

The problem is the next in line is just as bad if not worse than he is. We need a complete overhaul to get them ALL OUT.

So good to meet you tonight! We’ll see you tomorrow morning bright and early.

Further, these types of lessons aren’t possible when we mandate specific canned curriculum and strip teachers of their autonomy.

Proof that a lesson doesn’t have to be meticulously planned with multiple transitions or fancy buzz-worded objectives to be RELEVANT, IMPACTFUL, and lead to deep learning. I can guarantee those students will remember this lesson and those concepts well into adulthood. Bravo Teach!!
