3 More Years On the Crazy Train

There ain't no gettin' off this crazy train!
This ride will last another 3 years.

It's official:  three school board members's seats are up in April (Caren Diedrich, Steve Schroeder, and John Welke).  They each submitted nomination papers and declarations of candidacy.  No other candidates crawled out of the woodwork.  Not one SPARCle.

That means Mr. Schroeder and Welke can continue to forge a new path for this board and this district; it also means we have another three years of Caren Diedrich's zany comments.

A Ozzy would say,

Mental wounds still screaming 
Driving me insane 
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train 
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train 

I know that things are going wrong for me 
You gotta listen to my words 
Yeah 

The 8 Days of Christmas

Thank goodness for vacation time...right?  Ole SP-EYE has been too busy of late, but now some much needed time to do some catching up.

And, with the holiday season upon us, Santa SP-EYE has some gifts to deliver.
We weren't sure how to go about it; so we finally just tossed names in a hat.

First up also happens to be newest board member Steve Schroeder.

For Steve, Santa has a Blu-Ray copy of what we understand is one of his most favorite-est movies:  Driving Ms. Daisy.  We really hope Steve enjoys this!

This was something on John Whalen's list, but Mr. Whalen is on Santa SP-EYE's naughty list.  Mr. Whalen won't be getting coal in his stocking though.  Santa has some other things in mind.  :)
