Robert's new favorite band will be sporting these I bet. Then they will sign a major label deal and he'll hate them.
.........or,
They can be in the new Toni Basil video.

Just more DISD screw ups.
Posted On: Wednesday, Jul. 8 2009 @ 10:43AMHope I remember this when I am asked next year to vote for PTA money to be used for band uniforms.
Posted On: Wednesday, Jul. 8 2009 @ 11:10AMAs luck would have it...and what a coincidence to boot re: your earlier thread(s).... According to insiders allegedly ~~~those in charge of 'branding' the Bush Library's 'signature international image' scooped up the entire uniform lot to be apparently used for ‘think tank in house tour guides. Unconfirmed and as yet unreleased PR allegedly being spawned link this as being 'still another indication of the former president's financial prudence.'

Posted On: Wednesday, Jul. 8 2009 @ 11:22AMDiSD is a joke and the taxpayers are having to pay for all the screwups. They never hold people accountable.
Posted On: Wednesday, Jul. 8 2009 @ 12:10PMI agree with Joyce who said that DISD is a joke and taxpayers just have to keep paying more.
Meanwhile, public officials--state and national representatives (Congress, Senate, Texas House, etc), not to mention city council and the mayor--don't say A WORD about the waste of millions of dollars.
WHY IS THIS? Is it because they want the district to tank so that it can be split up? Is is because they're too old or out-of-touch to realize what's going on? Is it because they WANT Dallas to be a city without a middle class?
There has to be a reason no one elected says anything. And TEA? Please.
We plan to be yet another family moving out of the DISD--middle school and high school are just getting too ghetto-ish and chaotic. All of it is fixable (for example: create more alternative schools using existing buildings and get the thugs out of neighborhood schools), but no one is tending to the pretty straightforward business of the district.
The board, the supe--is anyone running this district? Sure doesn't seem like it.
If anyone knows why there's radio silence when it comes to the DISD--and I'm including church members who will donate thousands to overseas missions but will not speak up in defense of the poor kids in the district--I'm truly and sincerely wondering.
Posted On: Wednesday, Jul. 8 2009 @ 2:19PMWhen is the bulk auction for extra tall DISD male cheerleader unis (circa late 70s)gonna go on? I'd pay at least $10. Ship to Unfair Park HQ.
If I can find and will buy, would you video and post a herky for us loyal Unfair Park-ers, Robert??
Late '70s? Try mid-'80s. And, sure.
Posted On: Wednesday, Jul. 8 2009 @ 3:57PMagree - don't worry there will be a changing of the guard before long - we've waited out other administrations. I actually think the break up would be a good idea - but don't dismiss your neighborhood schools. Most principals, teachers, parents ans students are veterans who know how to get around the b.s. coming from Ross Ave.
It would be nice if we didn't have to fight them - but the struggle creates a strange galvanizing force which actually brings a school and community together. You can't get that in HPISD or a private school. At least our drop outs know two languages!
