The Thrill Is Gone

The Newark Star-Ledger reports that thousands of New Jersey high school students are expected to walk out of classes today to protest education budget cuts.

“A lot of things are being cut, like clubs and after school activities,” said Kathi Lloyd, a senior at Newark’s University High School. “A lot of kids come to school for the clubs and if they cut those, school is really boring for them.”

Well, Kathi, if you think school can be boring, try filling out a tax return sometime. Now THAT’S boring.
