Sitting on a Bomarc (SAM) missile site on L I N Y during the Cuban Missile incident was quite an experience. Today few know how close to nuclear war we came.

   All history in America today started at Selma in 65.  I asked 27 recient H S grads what country did we win our independence from. Only 5 could tell me and 3 of those were home schooled! Try it. Ask some.

   Woundering what they were teaching our kids and being retired I could sign up to audit for a small fee. I signed up for a 202 American History class at Jeff State.  This SOB walked into the class room and wrote on the board, "This class is taught on a marxist perspective!"

  I asked what Marxism has produced except poverty, opression and mass murder? I didn't make the dean's list there.

  Then I got an idea, we have a number of good retired people who could go and audit these classes. You would not believe is being taught.  The kids need the grade and can't stand up to a prof like that but we can. Give us something worth while to do. Do it!
