Sounds like the headmaster needs to be fired.

Here's another headmaster who was probably trained at Tesco:
"A Middlesbrough head teacher has asked parents to get properly dressed before the school run. It follows sightings of a number of them still wearing their pyjamas when they brought their children to school."

Twisters going around the states? Baddest tornado strikes in a Missouri town? Killer tornadoes not normal?

In the Midwest, we expect tornadoes this time of year, but 2011 has been much worse than usual. There have already been 910 confirmed tornadoes, and the one that struck Joplin, Missouri resulted in the highest death toll since 1950. And it may not be over; we've been told to prepare for another major storm today and tomorrow.

Yesterday armed gands sabotaged the mains water supply to the capital, San Salvador, in an effort to force the govt to change their policy of defying and bringing to heel the gangs. The capital is at the moment without mains water. Repair work should be finished by Saturday. Truck loads of bottled water have been convoyed to the city from Santa Ana, in an effort to alleviate the situation.

Daver and Trojan - I hope you'll both be OK. And everyone else in El Sal or tornado-land.

This has been a horrible week, so many lives that will never be the same again, it's traumatic to see the news. My love and prayers go out to all these people and will do all I can in efforts to help them financially.

I intended to ask a question regarding the severity of the tornados in the U.S. this season compared to other years but it seems Daver has already answered it. I hope you all stay safe and pull through unscathed.

Daver,you mention there has already been 910 confirmed tornados this year. On average,what would be the usual number in a 'tornado season'?

At least she knows there aren't 57 states.

Daver, re your post making it clear that Sarah Palin knows that there aren't 57 states. You're sure about that, are you? With her somewhat tenuous grasp on US history, her confusion about the administrative/legislative/judicial branches of the US government, and her general ignorance about matters of international import, she may be a little shaky when it comes to geography, too

I wonder how much American history any elected official or candidate actually knows. There should be an aptitude test that candidates have to take so the public is aware of how much they actually know. Although I'm sure most of the public, to quote the old song, "don't know much about history" either.

An apptitude test for politicians? Houston, you should be writing for TV. :)

Cym, the only excuse for your ignorance is that you are Canadian. Don't you have enough going on in your country to keep you busy? Turn on a hockey game or chug a Moosehead, and leave American matters to Americans.

Daver, isn't it in Canadians' and other foreigners' interest to be curious and opinionated on American presidential politics? After all we try to control the world militarily, economically, diplomatically, clandestinely and other ways. Surely a leading candidate for president of the country that has it's nose in every other country's affairs should expect criticism from anyone and everyone on Earth. If President Palin wouldn't leave Canadian affairs to Candians, why expect Cym to leave American affairs to Americans? Seems only fair.
