....Sarah Pallin *** She's a joke! I am insulted personally that McCain thinks that he can put whomever (unqualified
....Sarah Pallin - Personally I like her!
....Barack Obama - Scares me a little
....John McCain - I like him
....Going Green - I think it's GREAT, but can be VERY costly to start off...doing things a little at a time!
....Unschooling - ??????
....Reality Shows - Addicting, I love some of them, some are just plain stupid though!
....Sarah Pallin
....Sarah Palin:
....Sarah Pallin
My Kids and Me in Northern Ireland 2008 - The Giants Causeway ** Sue
...Sarah Pallin Another scary right wing religious fundamentalist politician. She scares me more than W.
....Barack Obama Hype. Trying to be like a Kennedy. But still better than McCain. Also, it makes me giggle when I hear people talking about how left wing he is. He's not a lefty!!!
....John McCain Old. Not who I would vote for if I was an American
....Going Green Somewhat futile for me as an individual to do, when big businesses and governments don't care to change. (But I do reuse, reduce and recycle and try to live greener)
....Unschooling Don't get it.
....Reality Shows Love them. LOL Well, some of them. the Biggest Loser and ANTM are my faves
....Price of Gas Effing ridiculous!!!!!!!!!! Boo.

....Sarah Pallin - Well, I'm Canadian so its a bit different but she just seems a little too extreme for me. She seems to be extreme on everything and she hunts moose, I'm anti-hunting.
....Barack Obama - I think the US needs change, is he perfect, of course not, but change is change sometimes.
....John McCain - I've always liked him when I've seen him interviewed (before the whole president stuff) and he seems pretty common sense, but again, I think there is some real change needed so bad timing for him.
....Going Green - I'm all for it, although am not as "green" as I certainly could be, but I try.
....Unschooling - I like the concept and wish I had enough money to stay home and try it, but I don't know how it works in reality. How does a child go on to get a Masters in Biology when they've never studied basic science in a structured environment? I guess until you've done it you don't know. But I also think that my life would be wonderful if I could do "unworking", work when I feel like it doing what I want, but the landlord doesn't quite get that concept. So I guess as kids get older, teens, etc., the idea of actually having to do something that isn't always fun and what you want to do is also an important lesson. Its not always about you. But again, not having experienced it I'm clueless and I'm sure this all works out in the end.
....Reality Shows HATE THEM
....Price of Gas - I'm at the "whatever" point. I pay what the price is. Here now it is $4.56/gallon, that is low. During Ike it was $5.40. That's the price, I need to drive so I pay. I don't bother getting upset about it. If it ever drops down to below $4.00 I'll have a heart attack. LOL
....Sarah Pallin I don't like her.
....Barack Obama Has some interesting ideas
....John McCain Contradicts himself too much.
....Going Green Everyone should do it.
....Unschooling Works great for us.
....Reality Shows Don't watch them
....Price of Gas Way too high

Linda,
Is "unschooling" the idea of homeschooling without a curriculum, as Kayleigh put it in her post?
