Let's GO BOHS!

You know what really grinds my gears?

The Boulder High School Student Worker group who proposed to change Boulder High's name to Barack Obama High School.

Again, I know I'm late, but again, I have a job and they've been watching me like hawks, those buttheads! (Oh and bt dubs, I've decided to give up swearing for Lent and even though it doesn't start for another week, I'm practicing now.... more on that later).

These kids thought it would be 'super sweet brah' to change the name of the oldest and most history rich school in the entire state. All of this reminds me back when I was SBP of BHS and had to make press releases saying that the school body does not support nor endorse the talent show group, 'The Tali-band,' whom made threats against Georgie W's life. I really think these kids don't get enough attention at home. Their ridiculous, immature, and ignorant acts of 'defiance' are just cries for help. HEY HEY HEY MOM!!! Look at me! Please pay attention to me!!!


On kind of a side note, take a look at the picture of the kids in this 'radical' political group. They are just a bunch of normal looking 16 year olds. TLittle and I were discussing how much they've changed over the years. When I first got to BHS and TLittle was a senior, the Student Worker kids were all grungy and wore flannel. By the time I graduated they had dreadlocks and wore tie dye. Now they're Abercrombie/hip vintage T wearing prepsters. They look like the San Fran so called 'progressives' if you will. It's become so mainstream to be 'radical' and to be frank, it bores me. Bring me back the oppressed hippie/grunge kids! Those are the ones that really make a difference in this world!

Let's play a game... if Boulder did change it's name to Barack Obama High School, what would be the mascot? Best/most creative idea gets a cookie!

haha, grace, i just wrote this week's cu independent piece on that, i think its funny no one thought about the fact that the mascot would be the Barack Obama Panthers...neo-terrorism anyone?

I think the Kool Aid jug would be a suitable mascot cause you'd have to be sipping it to attend BOHS
