So You Think You Can Teach

I signed up with an agency a few years ago to be a substitute teacher. It’s pretty easy to manage. You go online the night before and see who’s out...

Political Profiling

I'm visiting my better half in Houston for a few weeks.  I don't hate it, it being Texas.  But I can't stop staring at people to weigh who they...

Me, Myself and I

Me:  Table for one, please. Them:  Would you like the counter instead? Me:  No I'd like a table for one. Them:  No waiting for the counter.  Twenty...

Medi-cares

Do they?  They're mostly pests that feed on older people's vulnerability. Their flash cards include words like copay, tier one or two drugs,...
