Propaganda

I found this ABC book in my classroom book corner, lord knows how it got there. It is pretty dodgy, not sure what to do with it.

Ah yes, the freedom to keep your children away from others so that their indoctrination proceeds smoothly.
God bless it...

Burn it - burn it!

Cream - Stepford Wives, with the added bonus of Cold War/survivalism paranoia!

QE, I kind of like the thought of home schooling but this reminds me why it may not be such a great idea.

It did cross my mind Sar - but book- burning makes us Jews a bit nervous...

America creeps me out big time at the moment. That book isn't helping. And there shouldn't be an apostrophe in "ABC's", whatever the Americans say. Brrr.

Hi, by the way. I'm new here, came via Wyndham (as you'll know, if you're as obsessed with your stats as I am) I'm supposed to be writing an essay, so obviously I'm surfing round the blogosphere looking for new places to waste my time. Woo!

Hi Patroclus, welcome! I've seen you over at Wyndham's... I know, this book is almost a parody, it's so insane. I'm just baffled how it turned up in my book corner, in deepest darkest East London... Most of the staff we have from North America are Canadian, so I can't imagine it was them.

Blogs are great for that hey - in fact, it was through just such time-wasting that I found them in the first place. Down with work. Long may you continue to waste time...
