- What is your opinion of public education in the US today? Are you supporting the teacher's union and their anti-vouchers stance? What is your ideas on improving our public education system? I appreciate an insight from the inside. Thanks.

- Lookey what I found!
Lol, saw your post on MySpace, thought I'd give Squidoo a shot. I got one up on anime. Didn't seem to be much in the way of quality content, so maybe I'll have a shot.
Anywho Mr. H, what're you gunna be up to this summer? :)

Places I've Lived
- I spent the first two years of my life in Redlands, California. If you believe my mother I was almost eaten by a lizard...
- While my dad was getting his PhD, we lived in Provo, Utah. This was when my sister and I refused to get in a police car because we weren't supposed to talk to strangers. But it all worked out well...
- We lived a while in the Washington, D.C. area. Our first stop was Arlington, Virginia and we ended up in Gaithersburg, Maryland. Nothing funny happed. But we did have to move suddenly and change our names. I never did get the whole story...(Just kidding.)
- I went to High School in Orem, Utah. The only interesting thing that happened is that my English teacher threw an eraser at me, and hit me! I think she might have been aiming at someone else. I would have never caused any trouble...
- I lived in Argentina and Uruguay for two years. I moved around a lot because I was either a CIA agent or a Mormon missionary. I'll let you figure out which...
- I returned to find my parents had moved to Provo, Utah. I think they were trying to lose me. But I found out where they moved and managed to get a copy of the house key...
- During the summers I lived in Livermore, California. Nothing funny happened...
- I now live somewhere in Southern California. Again nothing funny has happened since my life is really boring. (Actually I'm running out of time and haven't thought of anything.)

Squid Addiction
- SquidJunkie
- Take a quiz to see if you have Squiditus. I scored a 6 out of 10 which means I probably need help.
- I Am On "Squid-Row" for Life
- This is a Squidictionary full of terms that might catch on here in Squid-Space. I've contributed two terms, Squidomain and Squid Squatter. We'll see if they turn up.
eBooks about Squidoo
I have not, yet, thoroughly read their materials. When I do I will post my review here. My initial impression is that they have valuable information for the existing business that wants to expand onto the internet.
What if you don't have a business?
My opinion is if you're searching for a money making opportunity online, these e-books are probably not worth $47.00.
How's that for a sales pitch. . .
