Christian Schools

I guess just being a Christian School does not guarantee Christian attitudes are being taught and practiced. It was recently reported that officials at a Christian University near Chicago moved dozens of Black and Hispanic students to a hotel for their own safety and police stepped up campus patrols Friday after 3 people received threatening, racist letters.

Poo poo to Continental Airlines. It is ironic that former CEO Bethune who retired Dec 30 should get a 27 million dollar payout while asking and getting $418 million in cuts from execs and lower level employees. Perhaps Comtinental should ask Bethune for a loan or better still he could reject some of the big payoff funds.

Kudos to grandparents who are raising their grandchildren because their parents need temporary help, and double kudos to those who have permanent custody and are responsible for making their grandchildren good citizens.

Maybe grandparents will take the responsibilty to find time to challenge convenience store owners who sell tobacco products to their underage grandchildren, and better still inquire as to why no arrests are made. Supermarkets do not intentionally sell tobacco products to underage persons, so why should convenience store owners be allowed to intentionally sell tobacco products to your grandchildren?
