And it begins….my two days of ZEN… a break from the crap that politicians and the media comes up with to keep us off balanced…..I will once again return to the world of crappy one liners and lame little slogans of politicians and their handlers….but first…there is other stuff happening that we seldom hear about and it is my job to find some of the stuff and pass it on to you……

We all know that we may not eat the healthiest foods….or that we may be a bit overweight…..and we know that some of our politicians are all about smaller government (that is the biggest lie of this century, so far)….do you believe any of the crap the politicians and the journalist are selling?

The school lunch — the bane of many parents’ and school administrators’ existence — has been in the news in a big way this year. And now, a recent report that a West Side Chicago school has banned homemade lunches has brought even more fuel to the fire.

The school, Little Village Academy — which doesn’t allow lunches brought from home and requires students to eat their cafeteria’s lunch offering instead — claims the new lunch policy will result in better nutrition for their overall student body. But is it cool to ban brown bags from school? Many parents are up in arms over this school’s lunchroom law.

If your child goes to this school….you have NO say on what the child has to eat for lunch…….now I ask , who gives these a/holes the right to dictate what a child has for lunch?  Apparently it is the local government or the school board or…….apparently anyone but the parent……

I realize that parents seem to be giving up many of their rights as parents to others on numerous issues….but do you want them dictating diet to your child?  I thought that we wanted out of the nanny state, at least that is what I am told by the right wing, and what part of this is NOT part of the nanny state?
