David: "No, you are always gone like 10 min before you are supposed to leave."
Mandy: "Uh, no I don't. I know the truth."

At happy hour last night, Fred quipped tongue-in-cheek that the University City community planning committee should be publicly eggsecuted for putting up all that hideous street "art" (if you can call it that) all along Governor Drive. Everyone there agreed with him. I wanted to know what all the fuss was about so I took a stroll this morning to check it out. Oh my, I absolutely see why he would call for public eggsecution. I wasn't given a vote on it, were you? Was anyone in the community? The word HIDEOUS is as close a descriptor as it gets but still doesn't do it justice. I hope the community rises up to have those giant tribal-looking popsicle sticks taken down. What a blight on our little community's main thoroughfare! Blechhh! Take them down!

debate for kids who either:
1. are too unintelligent to do a real event,
2. can't do their normal event at a tournament and want to be in an event that's easy to win,
3. don't really like debate but want it on their transcripts,
4. don't have time for real debate, or
5. want to practice empty rhetoric.
Ted Turner invented the event so that he could use the "Crossfire" from CNN in a high school activity, but after its first year in existence he disowned it because the debaters were too rude and whiny. Hence the current name, public forum.
This event almost always has lay-judges, or mommy judges, as real debaters call them. The team with the best voice wins. The topic is always simplistic and changes every month. The emphasis is on dumbing down the world so you can explain it to an idiot.

1. I tried so many times to explain the parts of a disad to him, but it was just over his head, so he switched to PF instead.
2. We could only take 4 teams in policy, so they had to go in public forum. They still qualified to nationals, even though they'd never done it before.
3. She's really good at science. She won the international science fair last year, but she wanted to have debate on her transcript, so she's doing PF.
4. He used to love debate, but this year he's taking so many AP classes that he doesn't have time, so he just does PF.
5. She's running for student body president next year and wants to learn how to talk pretty, so she's doing PF.
That lay-judge forgot which team was which and marked the wrong team as the winner. Oh well, such is PF.
