This just in

Apparently at Pellissippi State’s graduation ceremony, our very own GAC graduated Summa Cum Laude.

Good job, sweetheart!

I’m trying to stealth this in rather than take up another post with it, I got this in the mail today (the 8th).  Its very bittersweet.  She worked very, very hard for this, going to school part time around the billion other things she did.

Congratulations, BJ, you did it.

GA Woman Convinced Potter causes School Shootings, Literacy

Thursday, October 5th, 2006

Somewhat old news, but news nonetheless, Laura Mallory is appealing a decimallory.jpgsion handed by the Gwinnett County school board in Georgia that Harry Potter can stay in their public schools. Says Mallory:

They’re not educationally suitable and have been shown to be harmful to some kids.”

Indeed. While not quoting her, the MSM sources reporting this say that she is convinced that Potter books lead to school shootings, pagan worship, and evil in general, and that these problems wouldn’t happen if schools had children read the bible instead.

What if you got her, and the guy who wanted to remove “under God” from the pledge of allegiance together in a room for a free for all, no holds barred, wacko extremist contest? Better yet, pit her against somebody else with weird fascio-theological tendancies, like Islamic insurgents or something?

I’ll bring the beer.
