They're Teachers, Not Missionaries
Critics often say that the concept of performance pay is “anti-teacher.” But teachers, like everyone else, have to pay rent and buy their kids’ braces, and they like to take a vacation now and then. To take the position that teachers shouldn’t be rewarded for excelling, that we should continue the status quo, is truly “anti-teacher.”

Why would you ever raise your kid to be a Leafs fan?
It teaches you how to lose. There isn't a Toronto fan under the age of 50 who knows what it's like to end a season happily. This isn't a bad thing: they can shrug off losses that would cripple a more successful fan base. Leafs fan were prepared to make the playoffs for the first time in nine years, only to get pummeled by a divisional and historical rival with a recent Cup. (Why always them, why never us?) Leafs fans could even have survived an unlikely comeback from 3-1 down, only to come up short in a Game 7 in the opponents' building. (We weren't suppose to come this far anyway.)
But no one teaches you to lose like this.

SIFF schedule is shaping up.
There's no way to see all these movies.
Most of these movies end up on netflix within 6 months.
I think I'm going to cut back on the movie-going this year and plan to see some of these later.
I mean, I'm still working through last year's list.
