always plotting something

If I were to run for President of the United States 

(which I would NEVER do without first having my brain examined for severe mental distress), the following lists my most important changes for America.

The Bianco Party Platform

abolish daylight savings

Children and parents in this country are over-scheduled and tired enough without forty-eight of fifty states changing the time on us twice every year. It's insanity! I will restore schedule consistency. Moms with little kiddos will especially thank me.

SATURDAY HALLOWEEN

Mostly everyone loves Halloween, but no one loves the candy hangover when kids (and teachers!) have to attend school the next day. Instead of October 31st, I'll make Halloween the last Saturday of October every year. I know, it's brilliant! You're welcome.

SUPER BOWL SATURDAY

Why Super Bowl Sunday? Did the NFL ever consider Super Bowl Saturday? (The alliteration is still there, people!) I don't want to stay up until 1 A.M. on a school night. College football is over by playoff time. Playoff games are on Saturdays. Why can't the Super Bowl be on a Saturday too? I will sign an executive order to make this happen.

THE FREDOM TO READ

No book will ever be banned again! Every writer will have the right to tell their story and every reader will have the right to read.

Games Kids Play

In Duffer’s class,

we do this test review

called History Jeopardy.


In small groups,

we figure out questions 

from answers

and there’s more danger in 

teachers picking teams 

than students guessing wrong.


In my head,

I play this game

every weekday 

from eight to three. 

But Duffer doesn’t get that 

history teachers should be 

up on current events,

especially when they 

go down right in front of him.


Bet if he joined in

and the answer was 

                                  This boy threatened 

                                  to shoot up Harbor Bay Day School. 


Duffer’d know the question— 

                                  Who is Mario D’Auria?
