On Gabriel Knight and what anti-Semitism really means . . . proving that not all who walk the hallowed halls of the Cardinal are bright. The time has come,"the Senator said, "To talk of many things: Of ASSU--and idiocy--and anti-Semitism And why the Cardinal is boiling hot-- And whether jews have wings. The Walrus and The Carpenter ASSU comes a cropper in its run-in with Jabberwocky. This is as one would expect, the young and delicate being eaten by the Walrus and the Carpenter, at last. And unsurprisingly, it would seem, they cannot believe one would hold them to their words. The ASSU is a hot bed of anti-semitism, as, likely, is most of the rest of the Cardinal. "At Stanford, despite our administration’s Jewish-inclusive attitude, just last year, the ASSU Senate tried to cut the Jewish Student Association’s budget by two-thirds, giving the JSA just 24 hours to appeal. After JSA leaders took them to task, the Appropriations Committee claimed it had made a mistake — but its “correction” still amounted to a one-third budget cut. The Senate claimed that the cut was made because JSA maintains a cash reserve for exactly this sort of scenario, but the proposed cut was clearly larger than those eventually mandated for groups with similar emergency funds. The ASSU eventually backed down, but throughout the JSA crisis, it was painfully clear that the Senate had demanded cutbacks from JSA which, so far as the final budget proposals indicated, had not been required from any of the other identity groups on campus. I wouldn’t say the ASSU is a hive of anti-Semites, but I also don’t think the Senate has done very much in recent years to put the Jewish community at ease." "A mistake", "an accident" . . . sure, anything you say, but we know it was simply anti-semitism.

College should be a place, and time where young students are tested by difficult concepts, and harsh ideas, in order to temper the person, and create a stronger more resilient individual. Instead they are coddled, producing weak, malleable child-adults. We are failing our children.

You really must click through, it is indescribable, to the uninitiated in the delicacies of industrial demolition work. During the Vancouver project we needed to bring down a "roll grinder room" a room within the larger paper mill building. The room was about 2-1/2 stories high and the "rafters" were huge 28" x 36" beams (whole slabs of squared off tree, actually). I told the men my plan of action, and asked them to get the equipment while I organized a crane, among other necessaries. I left them to clean up the area, and get ready for the demolition. As an aside, the paper mill was still operating, and one of the paper machines was a mere cinder block wall, and 10' away from our work area, so I had to be careful. The structure needed to be raised without breaching that cinder block wall, raising too much dust, or dropping one of the "rafters" on the machine, or the rewinder. By the time I returned, one of the men had become antsy, scaled the wall, and was sitting astride one of the "rafters" sawing through it with a chainsaw. Yes, he was standing out-side of the saw cut so once finished he was ground bound along with the "rafter." I am still not sure why I didn't infarct right then, but I held out. I finally threw a piece of wood, or perhaps concrete him, and hit him. While he dropped the chain saw, he had sagaciously tied it off to the, yes, out-side of the saw cut. I called him down. Then I released the men to work on another project while I spent an hour performing my best interpretation of R.Lee Ermey's role in Full Metal Jacket. I screamed streams of epithets, and curses which even impressed me. I evolved entire new curses and epithets. I was not sure whether I was so enervated because I had narrowly dodged spending the next 24 hours of my 13 hour per day, seven day per week, 365 day per year shift with State Fatality Investigators (really, not kidding one bit, I worked 15+ months on the project a minimum of 12, but more commonly 13 hours per day - ok, the first week we only worked five 10 hour days, we were waiting for equipment and supplies). Or whether it was not having the "rafter" collapse, punch a hole in the concrete floor, then rotate over collapsing the cinder block wall into both the rewinder, and the paper machine. My job would have been the least of my worries. Oh, and for any dear precious snowflakes who happened to stumble upon this story, I did not get to go home early, nor was I given a safe place to cry out my angst. I worked the remaining 9 hours of my shift, and tagged my day shift counterpart to finish the now nearly finished demo. Lather, rinse, repeat, every single day for more than 15 months. I slept well, banked a ton of cash, and worked hard. I was in hog heaven. You are released to go back to your college dorm room, and whinge about how your butt plug is too tight. 'Sensitivity’ fascists are turning colleges into day-care centers
After nearly two decades of stressful helicopter parenting, how is a progressive expected to send their child to college? There might be monsters under the bed, or the delicate rose bud might be exposed to a difficult idea, or rigorous thought. They can't have that, so, they have created the Nanny College. It's like summer camp, but longer, and no child ever need fear struggling with a harsh word, or difficult idea. Boy, aren't these parents the best! |
