One Mans Opinion
Part IALLLLL Righty Then! Ever since the days of Roosevelt, some presi-dents tried and some didnt, but we now have the beginnings of anoverhaul of the countrys health care system. Its been LoooongOverdue. As someone who is still paying for a short hospital staythree years ago, where I paid $18 dollars for one Claritin for my allergies and where my former doc-tor wont see me anymore because I dont have insurance, even though I offered to pay for my visitin CASH. This new health care bill is a game changer. Ive been lucky over the past few years andhavent had any serious illnesses, if I had, I could probably pay enough to get some treatment, butwhat of the ones who have a lesser income or who are working with no benefits? What of those peo-ple who cant AFFORD to get sick? In arguably, the most powerful and progressive country on theplanet, why are we so slow in protecting the health of our citizens? Whoa, I feel a rant coming on, so
Id better just leave this topic for another time, after the Republicans do their NO Dance for the nextfew months. Ill just say, Thanks Barack for fighting so hard to get this done for America. You Did Doand Are Doing the Right Thing.
Part IITigers going to play in the Masters. Good for you Tiger. Now lets see how does this change mylife? Hmmm Nope, I guess not, nuff said. Good for you Tiger. I said that to talk about Ben Ro-ethlisberger. When Vick was accused a few years ago, he was immediately suspended from theNFL, but this is Big Bens SECOND accusation of sexual assault while the Commissioner Goodelland the Steelers management seems to be on vacation. They are taking their time reacting to Bens
predicament. I wonder why that is? OK heres my recommendation. Suspend Big Ben NOW.. Atleast Pretend to Act Fairly. At least ACT Like whats good for one athlete is good for another. Atleast make us THINK that Kinda, Sorta, Maybe its not a Racial Reaction. Was that subtle enough?Good for you Tiger and Win the Masters.
Just, One Mans Opinion.Live Long and Prosper

On a flight to Florida, I was preparing
my notes for one of the parent-
education seminars I conduct as an edu-
cational psychologist.
The elderly woman sitting next to me
explained that she was returning to
Miami after having spent two weeks
visiting her six children, 18 grandchil-
dren and ten great-grandchildren in
Boston.
Then she inquired what I did for aliving. I told her, fully expecting her
to question me for free professional
advice. Instead she sat back, picked
up a magazine and said, "If there's
anything you want to know, just ask
me."
Kids can sometimes ask the toughestquestions.
Son: Father, Can I ask you a
question?
Father: Ok ask.
Son: When a doctor doctors a doctor,
does the doctor doing the doctoring,
doctor as the doctor being doctored
wants to be doctored or does the doctor
doing the doctoring, doctor as he wants
to doctor.
Father: !!!??????!!!

The man passed out in a dead faint as he
came out of his front door onto the
porch.
Someone dialed 911.
When the paramedics arrived, they
helped him regain consciousness and
asked if he knew what caused him to
faint.
"It was enough to make anybody faint,"
he said. "My son asked me for the keysto the garage, and instead of driving the
car out, he came out with the lawn
mower."
When our second child was on the way,
my wife and I attended a pre-birth class
aimed at couples who had already hadat least one child.
The instructor raised the issue of break-
ing the news to the older child. It went
like this:
"Some parents," she said, "tell the older
child, 'We love you so much we decided
to bring another child into this family.'
But think about that. Ladies, what if
your husband came home one day and
said, 'Honey, I love you so much I de-
cided to bring home another wife.'"
One of the women spoke up immedi-
ately. "Does she cook???"

Great truths about life that
adults have learned
Raising teenagers is like nailing Jell-O to
a tree.
There is always a lot to be thankful for if
you take the time to look. For example:
I'm sitting here thinking how nice it is that
wrinkles don't hurt.
One reason to smile is that every seven
minutes of every day someone in an aero-
bics class pulls a hamstring.
Car sickness is the feeling you get when
the monthly payment is due.
The best way to keep kids at home is tomake a pleasant atmosphere and let the air
out of their tires.
Families are like fudge....mostly sweet,with a few nuts.
Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut
that held its ground.
Laughing helps. It's like jogging on the
inside.
Middle age is when you choose your ce-real for the fiber, not the toy.
My mind not only wanders; sometimes it
leaves completely.
If you can remain calm, you just don'thave all the facts.
Laughs
For weeks a six-year old lad kept telling his
first-grade teacher about the baby brother or
sister that was expected at his house.
One day the mother allowed the boy to feel
the movements of the unborn child. The six-year old was obviously impressed, but made
no comment. Furthermore, he stopped telling
his teacher about the impending event.
The teacher finally sat the boy on her lap
and said, "Tommy, whatever has become of
that baby brother or sister you were expect-
ing at home?"
Tommy burst into tears and confessed, "I
think Mommy ate it!"
A country doctor went way out to the
boondocks to deliver a baby.
It was so far out, there was no electricity.
When the doctor arrived, no one was
home except for the laboring mother andher 5-year-old child. The doctor instructed
the child to hold a lantern high so he
could see, while he helped the woman de-
liver the baby.
The child did so, the mother pushed and
after a little while, the doctor lifted the
newborn baby by the feet and spanked
him on the bottom to get him to take hisfirst breath.
The doctor then asked the 5-year-old what
he thought of the baby. "Hit him again,"
the 5-year-old said. "He shouldn't have
crawled up there in the first place!"

My Mother taught me how to BECOME AN

never grow up.
My mother taught me about GENETICS..."You are

My mother taught me about RECEIVING...You are
going to get it when we get home.
and my all time favorite thing - JUSTICE..."One day

A man observed a woman in the grocery
store with a three year old girl in her
basket. As they passed the cookie sec-
tion, the child asked for cookies and her
mother told her "no." The little girl im-mediately began to whine and fuss, and
the mother said quietly, "Now Ellen, we
just have half of the aisles left to go
through; don't be upset. It won't be
long."
He passed the Mother again in the candy
aisle. Of course, the little girl began to
shout for candy. When she was told she
couldn't have any, she began to cry. The
mother said, "There, there, Ellen, don't
cry. Only two more aisles to go, and then
we'll be checking out."
The man again happened to be behind
the pair at the check-out, where the little
girl immediately began to clamor forgum and burst into a terrible tantrum
upon discovering there would be no gum
purchased today. The mother patiently
said, "Ellen, we'll be through this check
out stand in five minutes, and then you
can go home and have a nice nap."
The man followed them out to the park-ing lot and stopped the woman to com-
pliment her. "I couldn't help noticing
how patient you were with little Ellen..."
The mother broke in, "My little girl's
name is Tammy... I'm Ellen."

Char t er Sc hool in Tough Neighborhood Gets
Al l i ts Seniors in t o Col lege
The entire senior class at Chicago's only public all-male, all-African-American high school has been accepted to four-year colleges.
At last count, the 107 seniors had earned spots at 72 schools across the nation.
Mayor Richard Daley and Chicago Public Schools chief Ron Huberman surprised students at an all-school assembly at Urban Prep
Academy for Young Men in Englewood this morning to congratulate them. It's the first graduating class at Urban Prep since it
opened its doors in 2006. Huberman applauded the seniors for making CPS shine. "All of you in the senior class have shown
that what matters is perseverance, what matters is focus, what matters is having a dream and following that dream," Huberman said.
The school enforces a strict uniform of black blazers, khaki pants and red ties -- with one exception. After a student receives the
news he was accepted into college, he swaps his red tie for a red and gold one at an assembly. The last 13 students received their
college ties today, to thunderous applause. Ask Rayvaughn Hines what college he was accepted to and he'll answer with a question.
"Do you want me to name them all?" For the 18-year-old from Back of the Yards, college was merely a concept--never a goal--
growing up. Even within the last three years, he questioned if school, let alone college, was for him. Now, the senior is headed to the
prestigious Morehouse College in Atlanta, Ga. next fall. Hines remembers the moment he put on his red and gold tie. "I wanted to
take my time because I was just so proud of myself," he said. "I wanted everyone to see me put it on."
The achieve- ment might not merit a
mayoral visit at one of the city's elite,
selective enrollment high schools. But Urban Prep, a charter school that enrolls using a lottery in one of the city's more troubled
neighborhoods, faced difficult odds. Only 4 percent of this year's senior class read at grade level as freshmen, according to Tim King,
the school's CEO."I never had a doubt that we would achieve this goal," King said. "Every single person we hired knew from the day
one that this is what we do: We get our kids into college."
College is omnipresent at the school. Before the students begin their freshman year, they take a field trip to Northwestern University.
Every student is assigned a college counselor the day he steps foot in the school. The school offers an extended day--170,000 more
minutes over four years compared to its counterparts across the city--and more than double the number of English credits usually
needed to graduate. Even the school's voicemail has a student declaring "I am college bound" before it asks callers to dial an exten-
sion.
Normally, it takes senior Jerry Hinds two buses and 45 minutes to get home from school. On Dec. 11, the day University of Illinois
at Champaign- Urbana was to post his admission decisions online at 5 p.m., he asked a friend to drive him home. He went into his
bedroom, told his well-wishing mother this was something he had to do alone, closed the door and logged in. "Yes! Yes! Yes!" he
remembers screaming. His mother, who didn't dare stray far, burst in and began crying. That night he made more than 30 phone
calls, at times shouting "I got in" on his cell phone and home phone at the same time."We're breaking barriers," he said. "And that
feels great."

A woman got on a bus holding a baby. The bus
driver said: "That's the ugliest baby I've everseen."
In a huff, the woman slammed her fare into the
fare box and took an aisle seat near the rear of
the bus.
The man seated next to her sensed that she was
agitated and asked her what was wrong. "The
bus driver insulted me," she fumed.
The man sympathized and said: "Why, he's a
public servant and shouldn't say things to insult
passengers."
"You're right," she said. "I think I'll go back up
there and give him a piece of my mind."
"That's a good idea," the man said. "Here, let me
hold your monkey."

"Everyone knows," the mother lectured him,

"Oh really?" said the lifeguard, "most of them
dont do it from the diving board!"

Our teacher was lecturing
on the conditions in whichbacteria exist. Elaborating
on the acidic environment
where bacteria thrive, he
suggested a simple experi-
ment. "I want you to drop
a nail into a glass of Coke
or Pepsi, and then observe
the acidic reaction on thenail," he said. The girl sit-
ting next to me raised her
hand and asked in all seri-
ousness, "Do you mean a
real nail, or a press-on?"

A man and his wife were making their
first doctor visit, the wife being preg-
nant with their first child.
After everything checked out, the doc-tor took a small stamp and stamped the
wife's stomach with indelible ink.
The couple was curious about what the
stamp was for, so when they got home,
the husband got out his magnifying
glass to try to see what it was.
In very tiny letters, the stamp said,
"When you can read this, come back
and see me."

With four daughters and one son always dashing to
school activities and part-time jobs, our schedule was
hectic.
To add to this, we kept running out of household sup-
plies.
I instructed them all to let me know when they used the
last of any item by writing it down on a note pad on the
refrigerator.
As a reminder, I wrote at the top: "IF WE ARE OUT
OF IT, WRITE IT DOWN."
When I checked the pad a few days later, to my delight
I found the following message:
"MOM, YOU MAY BE A BIT OLD-FASHIONED,
BUT YOU ARE NOT 'OUT OF IT."'
Things Mom Would Never Say
"How on earth can you see the TV sitting so far
back?"
"Yeah, I used to skip school a lot, too"
"Just leave all the lights on ... it makes the houselook more cheery"
"Let me smell that shirt -- Yeah, it's good for
another week"
"Go ahead and keep that stray dog, honey. I'll be
glad to feed and walk him every day"
"Well, if Timmy's mom says it's OK, that's good
enough for me."
"The curfew is just a general time to shoot for.
It's not like I'm running a prison around here."
"I don't have a tissue with me ... just use your
sleeve"
"Don't bother wearing a jacket - the wind-chill is
bound to improve"
