things that will never cease to amaze me

It will never cease to amaze me the things that students can break... how do you break a hot glue gun, a screw driver, a hammer... how do you hold a protractor for less than five minutes and break it?

It will never cease to amaze me at how little we support our schools... Everywhere I go people tell me how much the appreciate teachers and how committed I am to do so much for so little... they love to point out how under funded we are and how under paid we are, and yet if you ask them to approve a bond issue they freak out about paying more taxes...

It will never cease to amaze me at how much we place the rights of the masses over the rights of individuals...

There are many things in life that
