TEACHERS ON BULLHORNS? WHAT DOES THAT TELL YOU ABOUT THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA'S LACK OF "WHERE THE RUBBER MEETS THE ROAD" COMMITMENT TO PUBLIC SCHOOL EDUCATION: SOME WELL-HEALED PRIVATE LOS ANGELES HIGH SCHOOLS COST OVER $20,000.00 PER SCHOOL YEAR WHILE CALIFORNIA'S PUBLIC SCHOOLS RANK ONLY ABOVE THE GRAND STATE OF MISSISSIPPI IN PER CAPITA PUPIL SPENDING...WHERE IS THE BEEF? THROWING MONIES AT INNER CITY DROPOUT RATES ARE NOT A PANACEA FOR 70% DROPOUT RATES, BUT PROVIDING FOR BASIC BOOKS AND SUPPLIES AND PHYSICAL PLANTS CERTAINLY COULD MAKE THIS DIRE SITUATION, BETTER!SHOW ME THE MONEY, LAUSD CORTINES AND CALIFORNIA'S GRUBENATOR, INSTEAD OF GREASING THE GREEDY PALMS OF MEGA-BOOK COMPANY CARTELS FOR SCHOOL TEXTBOOKS THAT SIT IN ABANDONED INDUSTRIAL WAREHOUSES. 

OUR STUDENTS DESPERATELY NEED TEXTBOOKS, LAPTOP COMPUTERS, SAFE BUILDINGS/LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS AND "BEST PRACTICES TRAINED TEACHERS" AND ADMINISTRATORS WHO HAVE COMPASSION, UNDERSTANDING AND PANACHE, RATHER THAN PROFIT-MAKING BUREAUCRATS: OUR STUDENTS ARE HUMAN BEINGS, NOT ROBOTS!

EASTER? THE PASSION OF JESUS CHRIST OR JUST AN EASTER EGG HUNT WITH WHITE DRESSES AND CHOCOLATES?

IS EASTER JUST ANOTHER CULTURAL HOLIDAY LIKE CHRISTMAS WITH NO RELEVANCE OR REFERENCE TO GENUINE SPIRITUALITY?

OR, DOES THE PASSION (PASSIONE...pasion...Neigung...Paixao...) of Jesus the Christ connect us without reservations or boundaries to forgiveness, feeding the poor, embracing our enemies, sheltering the homeless and getting in touch with the genuine sanguine depths of our existential humanity?

 I humbly suggest that we (as Bernie Ward used to tell us) as adults should leave "our crayons in the vestibule and match our Christian beliefs with real time works for peace and social justice, as He did." After all, Jesus did not frequent the Fairmont Hotel or the SAINT BONAVENTURE: HE CURED THE LEPERS AND FED THE MULTITUDES AND SCORNED THE RELIGIOUS HIPOCRITS LIKE THE PHARISEES AND THE SADUCEES...a real life's HAPPY EASTER...BUONA PASQUA...FELIZ IL DIA DE LA PASQUA) TO EVERYONE AND PEACE ON EARTH TO ALL GOOD MEN AND WOMEN AND THEIR CHILDREN).

KARL ROVE IS RAVING MAD AND DISRESPECTFUL.

KARL ROVE EPITOMIZES THE WORST OF LOW UNITED STATES CULTURE AS HE OOZES SLIME, HATRED AND VENOM FROM HIS DESPICABLE DARK TONGUE...Wayne Dennis Kurtz -a patriot who criticizes this very poor excuse for a former president of vice from the United States of America. (HE WAS THE BEHIND-THE-SCENES "WIZARD OF OZ" WHO STOOD ON THAT WOODEN BOX WITH THE MEGAPHONE, CALLING FOR "SHOCK AND AWE" ATTACKS ON IRAJ -A SOVEREIGN NATION WHO NEVER ATTACKED THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA).

BAH HUMBUG...!

ITALY'S DAY OF MOURNING...

THIS EASTER SEEMS SAD AND VERY HOPELESS TO ME AS WE HAVE LOST A LARGE PIECE OF OUR ITALIAN SOUL AND SO MUCH HUMAN SUFFERING IN A PART OF ITALY THAT WAS SO PRISTINE AND GENUINE: I REMEMBER TAKING A ONE-CAR TRAIN TO VAL DI SANGRO (THE VALLEY OF BLOOD) AND MEETING ITALIANS WITH LOVE IN THEIR HEARTS AS THEIR LIVES WERE SO SIMPLE AND PURE. TODAY, THEY ARE SAVOURING EACH AND EVERY BREATH FROM INSIDE A BLUE PLASTIC TENT. ABRUZZI, WE ARE PRYING FOR YOU...Wayne.
