Terrible Terry Tate, Office Linebacker

I just found out that Terry Tate is a fictional character ! He never played for the NFL at all! Tate's real name is Lester Speight . He played a stint of division 1 college football in the 80's, but then turned Pro Wrestler, and then turned actor . His work is featured in famous movies, TV shows, and even video games.

(There were 9 clips made in total.)

At any rate, it was clear that we needed a lesson on how our personal actions affected the rest of the family. THE LESSON: It was an emotionally charged FHE. Dad informed us with a smile that we would have an EXTRA special treat that night. We would either rush through the FHE lesson...

Tribute to the Movie Dune

This is a richly symbolic photo. You decide what it is symbolic of exactly: a. The supernatural-like abilities that both possess. One for inciting revolutions, and the other for squelching them. b. My need to control my own most valuable resource: ________ . c. They both have [natural] beautiful, blue eyes. The spice , in this case, refers to the genes that run in the family. d. All of the above. *If you haven't seen the movie Dune , or its sequel, Children of Dune , I recommend watching them when you are sick at home.

US involvement in Pakistan--Intelligent Students

* See India's 9/11 for more on what's going on in Pakistan. President Bush went to a school to interact with the children. After a brief talk with the children he asked them if they had any question to ask him. One boy raised his hand and stood up; Bush: what's your name John: john Bush: whats your question? John: Sir, I have three questions 1) Why did America attack Iraq without the approval of UNO? 2) Where is Osama? 3) Why does America support Pakistan so much? Bush: you are an intelligent student John....(just then the bell for recess rang) Oh dear students--we will continue after the recess is over. [After the recess] Bush: ok children where were we? Yes, so anybody wants to ask any question? Samantha raises her hand Bush : What;s your name? Samantha : Sir, I am Samantha.
