Sometimes, a little facial hair can raise the ire of the local church lady. It’s not that it is spiritually offensive. I propose it is because the scruffy look reminds Eunice of her younger years when she dated her dear Grover.
Happy No-Shave November!
I drew this cartoon for the November, 2015 Church of God Newsletter.
I admire parents who home school their kids. If my parents did it, I would not have been a model student. I am pretty sure I would have been an even worse homeschooling parent. I tip my hat off to friends and family that have had great success at homeschooling.

You finally see some politicians take up the cause of less testing. But some fear the pressure has already done too much damage to students, parents and schools.
Whether standardized tests are good or not, there was never any good campaign to promote standardized tests with the public. The marketing was poor or nonexistent.
