HAHAHAHA - I was referring to a new car with all the computer crap in it = the basic parts that make a car run are still there, but at least in CA anyways, there are all kinds of superfluous crap under the hood for this, that and other tax/fees to make the head spin....I don't even recognize a car engine anymore with all the junk in there...where is the engine?
Comparatively, to me anyways, it is like looking through a dirty glass to find the goanna - it is in there somewhere, behind all that dirt...just have to clear the dirt away and wallah! There is the engine....and I do not have a Ph.D. either...I teach Pre-K. where abc, 1-2-3 are the least of our concerns....we have to test these little fellows via "All kids left behind" crap every 3 months, 4 other testing batteries/year. When is there time to 'play' and encourage 'play, getting along, and using language?'
As Admiral Nimitz said before he retired, "I am not a sailor anymore, I am a five-star paper-pusher messenger"
cheers Jody,
