Default Feeblest excuse heard for closing a school?

I'm sadly short of time tonight, so I'll just be brief:

Russia


1/2 billion DEAD under CAPITALISM.

China


Chiang Kai-sek: agricultural, overpopulated Asian nation,
Mao Tse-tung: industrial SUPERPOWER,

One could in fact say the same about Lenin's Soviet Union.

Italy


Italy was SOCIALIST?!

Do you just mean that a Marxist revolution was at some time
unsuccessful there?

Britain


Britain was SOCIALIST?!

Once again, do you just mean that a Marxist revolution was at some time
unsuccessful there?

Latvia


Part of the USSR, and your point is?

Poland


Again, the FIRST official Soviet satellite socialist state of Slavia.
(Phew, what a mouthful.:-))

Georgia


What about Georgia?

Afghanistan


What about Afghanistan?

Babrak Kamal would have made a GREAT leader for Kabul.

Chechnia


What about "Chechnia"(?)?

Hungary


What about Hungary?

Mongolia


What about Mongolia?

Thibet


1. LEARN HOW TO SPELL,
2. "TIbet" - FREE now under CHINESE rule, what about it?

Korea


1. Which one? Shall I just assume that you mean, the FREE, DEMOCRATIC
North, or the whole peninsula?,
2. What about it?

Roumania


What about Romania?

Most Romanians STILL love Ceausescu.:-o In fact, I wrote something
about this just earlier this afternoon.

Since this country is riddled with paedophiles and children are even
unsafe from children these days, it makes sense to have no risk to

their
safe journeys to and from home interrupted by weather or any other
cause.


WTF is this supposed to mean?:-(

Jesus, talk about trying to derail a losing argument!:-o :-(

Now who says that socialism doesn't work?


Russia, China, Italy, Britain, Latvia, Poland, Georgia, Afghanistan,
Chechnia, Hungary, Mongolia, Thibet, Korea, Roumania and few others I
forget just ATM.

In 1995, we just carried on ALL DAY through some 12 inch(!) snowDRIFTS,
and even just some ELEVEN months later, in November, 1996, with just a
roundabout 10 inches of snow, we all just carried on AS PER NORMAL!:-o
:-(

It's pathetic. It truly is pathetic. Some Siberian Slavs have to live
ALL year round under PERMAFROST CONDITIONS, and yet they still managed
to get educated. So much so, in fact, and here is an interesting fact
for you all, the man who invented the space rocked WAS a Siberian
Russian PEASANT!:-o :-)

I'll start the ball rolling. Heard from a Headteacher from the south on
Radio 5 Live this afternoon:-
"The toilets might freeze"
Let's hope he doesn't teach physics! Presumably the toilets are outside
and
they haven't heard of insulation. Even if it had been -10 every night this
week that still wouldn't have happened!
Doh!
Dave



Well on Radio Norfik the other morning, the excuse given by one teacher was
that as well as getting the kids into school, they had to *guarantee* to get
the kids home. One wonders why they don't close the school every day as,
let's face it, they can't guarantee a pupil isn't going to get runover once
they step outside the school gates :-(

Cheers
