Part of the Riddles and Puzzles Series - Next in series
Picked up Z from school today and was immediately presented with a riddle that Ms. Falconer (her favorite teacher and mine) offered up to the class today. Anyone who solves the riddle will receive an in class reward. I believe I can figure it out, but we’re on our way out the door to see The Wizard of Oz at the local drive-in so I’m reaching out for help from…
Kettering Isn’t Your Parent’s University
Posted on April 8, 2008 - Filed Under Education | Leave a Comment
On Saturday I took Z to an open house at the local private school I’m hoping to send her to for high school. As a result we started talking once again about college (it’s a college prep school). I used to be adamant about the needs for a college education, but as I’ve wizened my opinion has changed. I now believe that most people would be better served taking the tens (or hundreds) of thousands of dollars spent on a…
Need A New Way To Fundraise Online?
Posted on January 4, 2008 - Filed Under Education, Fatherhood | 2 Comments
I went to private school for 8th-12th grades. One of the things that bugged me was that we were always doing fund raisers for something. Z’s in public school and we have the same problem (though now I’m on the opposite end). Shoutback thinks they’re the answer to fund raising woes and we made this little video to help spread the word-

Confusion Reigns As Dow Has Worst First Day Ever
Posted on January 2, 2008 - Filed Under Education, Personal Finance | 1 Comment
According to MSNBC the Dow Jones Industrial Average had its worst first day of the year, ever today. Oil spiked 4% to $100 per barrel and the Dow dropped around 220 points. Meanwhile, silver prices (where I’m currently investing) barely increased. As a novice investor, none of this makes sense to me. I can read the news reports, I can do the math, but I’m simply failing to see the correlations. I need to take some economics classes, but that’s…
Who Knew I Could SAVE Money By Homeschooling?
Posted on December 21, 2007 - Filed Under Education, Technology | 2 Comments
As I get further and further along the path to homeschooling Z I’ve been researching different areas. The latest has been the actual cost of schooling her myself (considering I’ll still be paying taxes to the useless public schools). It turns out that, thanks to www.CostCaptain.com I can actually save money on a bunch of computer software when I start home schooling her. For example, the Standard Edition of Microsoft Office 2007 usually costs around $210, with the (limited) student edition…
Don’t Think Online Universities Grant Real Degrees? Think Again!
Posted on December 19, 2007 - Filed Under Education | Leave a Comment
I’ve written here a few times about the possibility of earning a college degree online. Every time I get comments and/or emails from people telling me that no one has any respect for online universities, so they’re a waste of time and money. Well, tell that to Teresa Chaulk. She was recently named superintendent of Lincoln County School District Number One in Kemmerer, Wyoming and earned her PhD through the online degree program at Capella University (which I wrote about just…
