JENNY? TAKE A RIDE!

Board member Jennifer Faliero tries to control blogs by suggesting that blogs "govern" unregistered posters. In other words: "Your papers please."

Check it out here and at the University of Miami Education Students Blog!

So much for P.R.

I wonder why she doesn't start a blog (ala April) and join us. Could it be, as Lee contends, that her writing/tech skills aren't up to the task and would reveal she had used the schools PR department to answer newspaper criticism?

The good thing is that her comments, efforts and behavior will reside on the web for a very long time. (File Under: Swingin' Time)

Stay tuned - ESPECIALLY during the election season.

Don't worry either, you may comment without reservation or registration on TheWALL.

The Wall is a much needed and much appreciated platform for honest discourse on issues involving local schools and the people who run them. I don't think it does anything for our credibility to make personal attacks on anyone's moral character.

Lets not forget with regard to the "homewrecker" comment, it takes two to tango. IMO, she didn't wreck anyone's home. He did.

Besides, what does this have to do with her performance on the school board. Isn't there plenty to talk about on that?

That said, I would NEVER want anyone to censor these blogs. I just don't think its fair the hit below the belt with comments like that.

I think it makes us look bad. I am not a fan of hers but I wouldn't want my personal life subjected to that kind of mean spirited scrutiny. Would you?

Hey Tom, Have you read Lee's blog lately? Would you repeat what you wrote on TheWall on Casting Room's blog? Just wondering.

Absolutely not. Dont be naive. She is not a teacher. She doesn't represent our profession.

Regarding Lee, I am not going to pick a fight with someone who is openly lobbying on our behalf. She has the courage to not to make mean-spirited comments, hiding like a coward. I don't always agree with her but unlike you, I respect her.

What is your point? Are you the one who anonymously posted the sexist "homewrecker" about the board member?

Come out into the open. Who are you? I wouldn't be a bit surprised if you were a shill trying to discredit teachers.

Is that all you got?

Hey Tom,
Reread your comment. A little hypocritial are we? "Settle down" conscience.You may call me a coward and I will call you a fool. And what about Suzie, Ricky, Goader(before he came out) etc. You take things tooo serious, lighten up'!
Here's a "tip" If you do what you have always done, you will get what you always gotten!
Just call me "Alice Crabtree" will remain anonymous because ... I CAN !!!

Fair enough Alice.

No sense trying to defend myself. Your points are well taken.

My wife even notices my anger.

Thanks for the advice.

Going to Williamsburg and Tappahannock Va. to see family. When I return I will be lightened up.

Have a happy holiday. Take care Alice :)

Hi all, love the blog.

My wife is an elementary school teacher in Hillsborough, and the administration seems to do the slimiest stuff that is not good for teachers or students. Where do people usually post about that sort of thing? Thanks!
