Dear Principal,
I have a college degree, speak two foreign languages and know four Indian dialects. I've at-tended a number of county fairs and three goat ropings, but I haven't the faintest idea as to what the hell you are talking about." OK, Ann, do you know what the principal was trying to say? -Two Dummies in Fort Worth Dear Friends: I don't think you are dummies.

Grading will be geared to the learning level of the student. In this way, we hope to teach and grade each student accord-ing to his ability to learn." P.S. Pay your wife the $10. Or better yet, send it to your local Heart Association.

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, whatever they needed I provided. What really hurt my son and I the most was the obituary - we were not mentioned at all. Our friends (mine and hers) were appalled. I was embarrassed and upset for not just me, but for my son-who loved her also. I never been so upset. Her x-husband put his wife and kids and their grandchildren in the obituary, who my girlfriend barely knew. They live an hour away from us. I know its silly to be mad over a little section of the newspaper, but it still hurts. Will time let this devastating loss of her and this article ever go away? I am so angry at this whole situation, its not like we can go and rewrite an obituary notice.

Tell us what you think?
