A hodge-podge* of news served hot this Monday morning

Schools bag purses in class - USATODAY.com or, why it's in the little things like banning a girl's purse that schools demonstrate how they are not about freedom of expression but about domination and control.

US economy chugs ahead despite auto and housing slumps - Yahoo! News or, how US business are succeeding in road-blocking economic independence among that pesky of servant classes, the middle class.

Dolls lose their innocence - Yahoo! News or, are we using sex to sell toys to kids or to adults?

Funk veteran Prince to play at Super Bowl show - Yahoo! News, or how to insult an aging pop star.

Iran hosts Holocaust doubters at conference - Yahoo! News or how Iranians get to do what most Republican wingnuts can't.

Would serial killer Dahmer have been an evangelist? - Yahoo! News or, how this article proves my theory that Christianity is all about sublimated cannibalism and necrophilia.

*** BTW, Hodgepodege is a wonderful dutch comfort food made of mashed potatoes, lettuce, bacon and cream that I had the pleasure to try out in Amsterdam earlier this year. I don't think Dahmer would have like it Eye-wink

You inspired me! See what I did with this at Snook . . .and do comment if you've a mind, and a few minutes.
This item lends itself much better to comment than the Christmas tree musical chairs being played by that airport in the news, for education commentary at least . . .
