There are some things I am pretty sure of after my nearly 56 years of journeying along life’s road.

Here are a few.

I wonder if you agree.

• The longer a man or woman is in Hollywood with any sort of success, the more likely he or she is to implode. That’s why so-called agents get so rich.

I agree with most except this -
Schools can only be as good as the parents of the children who attend them.

That won't bring back Allen Eldridge, the former pike school psychologist who comitted SUICIDE because of blatant corruption by some administrators of the district.
Some parents, ME included, did right and followed the laws in our situations with the school, but the corrupt administrators WOULD NOT.
Being good parents did not keep them from doing this.
This is why most, if not all, of the former special ed dept is gone now.
This is why Allen Eldridge is gone now.

I refuse to consider a person who commits suicide as being totally balanced. Except in the case of excessive physical pain.

I didn't know him personally so I don't know if there were other problems involved, but he was a VERY nice person,about the only decent one I had contact with at the schools.
