So Im thinking of getting a portable GPS for my car but have no clue what kind to get.  Im looking at the ones in the $99-$199 range.  Any suggestions on this?  I wouldn't be using it all the time just every once in a while.

I bought the Garmin Nuvi 205 in January and love it.  Works great for what I need.  Watch the prices at Walmart, I think it is around 129.99 right now.

Garmin Nuvi 205

JT has the Garmin Nuvi [forget the number] and it works well.  Even on the Big Island Hawaii, it got us back to the hotel [siteseeing and dinner on the other side of the island] after the main road was blocked off.  Can you even imagine JT asking for directions in the dark?  And I mean dark... not every road is lit.  And the road names, Puuaanuu St.  Annuuaa Rd. etc.,

It was a lifesaver.  We update the maps on the internet before every trip.

The Rev is ready to go on record that he does not like kids.

The Rev arranged for his sixth graders to visit the Korea Maritime University.  They have a ship museum, a bridge simulator and then the kids got to run around on a 110 foot training ship.  (The Rev should mention that 6 of my 8 students dads are naval architects, engineers, shipping execs, etc.)

When the day was done, I asked them what the coolest thing was.

Lunch at McDonald's.  F-ing Lunch at McDamnDonalds!

The Rev has two consolations:

1) The kids agreed that The Rev was cool for taking them on a field trip that their dads would have loved.  (!)

2) The Rev did not have to sit inside that classroom for 6 hours with those animals.

There are two days left in school.  The Rev has been told not to show movies but to continue teaching legit stuff.  But with tomorrow being the last full day and Wednesday being three hours and then a barbecue, how much teaching can The Rev really accomplish?

The expression "Jack Shiz" comes to mind.

P.S.  Korea Maritime University as an American football team.  The Rev wonders how they would do against SUNY Maritime or Merchant Marine.

P.P.S.  The Rev hasn't had McDonald's in months and is now, at 3 am, suffering from outrageous gaseous expulsions.  Let's just say that if there were a methane-burning power plant nearby, The Rev would light up the whole dadgum Korean peninsula and part of Manchuria, too.  mercy!

rev...u obviously dont have ankle biters....pbr could of told this in a heart beat....kids remember food/bus rides/strange things that happened on field trips not what you went to see i.e. zoo/historical place etc....

Since the LLPP has trended back toward bathroom talk, Kaz is wondering if any of you have ever taken an epic dump in a public restroom only to discover that the water is off for the bathroom/building?  I just dropped a particularly nasty load here at work and discovered that dilemma.  Should I feel guilty about this?

Clean it up, Kaz00!

Reminds Pep of the time Mrs. Pep and the Lil Peppers were shopping for kitchen cabinets in Olean. Pep Jr. was toilet trained and damn proud of it...and proved it to the salesman by using one of the display toilets. Pep cleaned it up....the salesman was not enamored.

Hey Rev I hear you about the end of the year time in the classroom. For me, I tend to teach as much as possible right up until the end, even when their is nothing left I try to pull everything out of my ass!. To be honest though I only do it because it clearly makes the time go by faster. Movies are brutal and just make the day drag, especially at the end of the year. I learned this early on. Keep up the teaching, **** the movies! The meaningful instruction not only makes time go by faster and keeps the kids on their toes but makes you look good. Hence a win win situation! And Rev, being across the ****ing ocean and with McDonalds gas coming out your backside, you deserve a win win ASAP! Good luck brother and congrats on the end of the year.

Its hard to like other people's kids.  Movies and vids are bad, depends on the subject.  The history channel does some good stuff:  The Revolutionary War series is pretty good, the States series, history of the states (five states per episode). JT finally has the whole 50 State deal on TIVO.  Next bad weather day and JT will down the entire States series.

John Adams HBO for HS students wouldn't be bad either.

[mattvsmith]

The Rev already broke down and showed Ferris Bueller's Day Off the other day.

The next day we watched Miracle.

Kids loved it.  Today we're going to clean the classroom.  They're going to hate that.

Awesome.

Dante "the Dirtbag" Stallworth gets 31 days in jail, 2 years house arrest (in his own home of course), and pays off family of the person he killed while driving his Bentley hammered. Here is another animal that actually "kills" another human being as a result of his negligence and inappropriate behavior and yet will still play football this upcoming season. I don't know much but I know that is ****ed up. This has become the norm. These pieces of **** can do anything they want and get away with it. Lesson for a star football player: a human life = 31 days in jail + 2 years house arrest in a mansion while you play a "game" for millions of dollars....hmmmm. Note: it was awful big of Dante to take "full" responsibility for his actions, cleary he meant this when he paid off the family to avoid civil suit. Well kids here is another role model and great professional !

Dante is a piece of ****!!!

How about the dirtbag family members of the deceased accepting 'blood money' for the murder of their family member.......how could you live with yourself.

U89 has less of a problem with Stallworth.

[Kira & Jaxon's Dad]

How does someone who kills someone only have to spend a month in jail but Vick had to spend YEARS in jail for his offenses?  Our society is messed up...

Dlippiel feels U89 makes a good point here. He can't imagine how on earth the family of the deceased accepted that money. Dlippiel still feels that Stalworth is garbage and hopes Goodell sits his ass for an extended period of time to say the least.

I think this was my biggest problem with this whole situation!  If it were you or I who had done this you could say bye bye for 10+. 

I also agree that the family basically just saying it's OK because they were getting money is also dispicable.  But are they not going to accept the money?
