    How is it being billed?

    Abbott & Costello?
    The Two Stooges?
    Frick & Frack?
    Cheech & Chong?
    Laurel & HArdy?
    Amos & Andy?

    I hope they are using sub-titles to translate their edu-speak

      Y.S-R.–Love your “oys!” However, we’re way past oy, even “oy vey!”–more into “Oy vey iss meir!” (the superlative in Yiddish).

    Why bother watching? The script is already written, the actors playing their villainous parts, coming off as good guys to only the incredibly naive (not descriptive of anyone reading THIS blog!)..

    So does this mean that Diane and Mercedes get the next CNN prime time slot involving education?

    Excuse me, Diane…but is there any way I can contact you/you can contact me? I have a pretty important technical problem on this site which I can’t resolve by myself.
