We're Goin' to Jersey?

The U.S. is the Kobe Bryant of international politics. You take all the shots--you get boo'ed and usually lose. You take no shots--you get boo'ed and always lose.

Why don't English-speaking Americans take advantage of all of these Hispanic immigrants? Namely, why don't we take advantage of their Spanish-speaking kids? Starting next fall, all Kindergarten and First-grade classes in schools where a third or more of the kids are already Spanish speakers should be bi-lingual. No ESL classes, no more 1-language-only American kids. All the kids, all together. Everything in Spanish in the morning. Everything in English in the afternoon. You don't need to teach them languages--just go. They'll figure it out.

If you are unhappy about something, there are only two reasonable reactions: either fix it, or get happy about it.

Current Mission: keep on keepin' on.

How 'bout them Suns?
