*** Advisory Notice - Parental Venting ***

What a waste of time! I just spent 4 hours constructing my daughter's science project for her.

Her lame-ass science teacher wanted each student to make a roller coaster (for the study of energy conversion, friction, and the law of conservation of energy don't you know).

Now based on the dimensions, there's no way you couldn't have done it on a small scale.

Now I'm not saying that 13 year-old girls and boys can't use Skilsaws, drills and glue guns, but since CA doesn't offer shop classes anymore, there's a small chance they'd know how to.

So, I spent my day in the garage, teaching my daughter the art of swearing, building this piece of s&@%!

But low and behold I came upon an idea to get back at the local science teachers. And that is this - we recycle science projects between parents on a world-wide scale (except for Zimbabwe).
