Thursday, 26 January 06 :: oh no.

the boys are falling behind. goddess, this country is really fucked. because the boys are falling behind and we must go do something to save the boys. nevermind that the girls have been behind forever, and that the boys run everything in this patriarchial society. yeah, gotta worry now. nevermind that.... well, fuck. i guess if you look at george and the example he's setting, its no matter the boys are falling behind, because really, with that kind of example, they don't have to strive very hard in order to have the smarts to become president. really. the boys are falling behind. the sky is falling, the sky is falling.

sorry boys. i don't have a lot of pity for you, not in this patriarchial society that we live in. because no matter how dumb you get, as things stand, you will still earn more than a woman in the same position you are in, and you'll have a much better shot at becoming president. yeah. no pity. sorry.

mush brain, mush.

about
i'm brooke, born in '73. i am currently a phd student in instructional technology. this is the blog where i capture all the neurotic, and the few non-neurotic, moments that seem to come with being a phd student (if you want to read less neuroses and more professionalism go to: oer's, dl's, reuse and culture: it's about a phd student researching digital resources in a multicultural world). i have been from eugene, oregon for a long time.. 8 years specifically (its my home now, but i grew up in southwestern virginia), but now i'm here in logan, utah at utah state university. after finding my roots in eugene i never could have expected that i would leave that liberal oasis and head to utah. but i did and there are days when its a blessing and days when i'm tempted to go back to oregon and beg the folks at lost valley educational center to let me move in. but i won't leave because there are days when this process is better than any kind of high i could ever imagine. what else? i collect things, i have 2 cats, 2 kayaks, 2 laptops (i'm a geek - one mac, one pc). i can be emailed at brookesblog@rivervision.com.
