Can a Principle ever retire?


We are now one week further from PVV and one week closer to FVV, just as with each individual’s perspective, there good and bad in everything. The bad thing is PVV is over and now in the history books, but the good thing is we are rapidly approaching, writing a new chapter in the annuals of the 0-family vacation! 

History is really a funny thing, on one hand it is documented thru the lens of the person writing the words. BTW 7 had a real disaster on the PVV, as we all know, 7 has a very difficult time with sun glasses. Falls into a pit in the ocean, loses them, crosses Lake Bundy sea gull pecks 7 on the back of his head finds a new pair. Who know!  This year 7 went up for his afternoon lunch with his sun glasses, took them off, et (ate) some lunch, found sun glasses broken on the table? Who knows? The next morning 4 found a new pair?  7 still had to go without because 6 stole them! You snooze you looooose! On the other hand, (back to history), it is interpreted thru the lens of the person reading that history. What a dilemma! Lens of the writer, lens of the reader, we should have 7 write and ready history, for he can’t keep a lens for more than a day! That is where the other principal comes in… it is the responsibility for the principal to ensure that what is being taught has no bias, and dedicated just to the facts.  Then again who knows because that really depends on the principal’s principles. 

Speaking of principal’s principles, on PVV we saw that action in spades! Picture this, well actually don’t, 6 doesn’t want to get in trouble for his description of a person. Therefore, in your mind’s eye think about a retired person who spend 350 years as principal of an elementary school! 4 is that an acceptable description, after all it was you who deduced the prior occupation of this person. This person (Now referred to as the Eagle eye) came down to the beach everyday about 3:00 (one sure give away about her profession), gave an eagle eye view of the beach (one more clue), opened the chair sat down, changed her hat and glasses, pulled a book out of the book bag oops beach bag, (two more clues) pretended  to read the book, but was always keeping a close watch for beach rule breakers! When all of a sudden, the eagle left its perch, and pounced on a group of teenagers who were attempting to take their bikes up the boardwalk that was located right behind us. That is a No No the poor kids with their heads down walked their bikes to the next boardwalk where bikes are “allowed”. The next day, some poor person was attempting to open the chair that they had dragged down to the beach, and once again the eagle left the perch and pounced on this poor unassuming person because they were not doing it correctly. Before the eagle could get back to her perch, there was another victim of beach rule breaking this went one every afternoon. The best part is 8 was busted for trying to do the bike thing, the only difference was 8 just kept on going! This makes 6 wonder if that is how 8 handled inputs from his past principals? BTW has for those that were not on PVV but will come to 0-FV, KICA posted new signage on the board walks going down to the beach. They are much the same, with the exception of “No Drones”. This new signage has caused 6 with his superior intelligence to do some thinking. If the first rule is No Bikes, and the eagle eye is correctly reading the sign, then that means no bikes on the beach, we all know that is not true! So, if one is to use the principals, principle’s logic, then once can have glass, or drones or bikes on the beach, only problem is then how to get them to the beach when you can’t have them on the boardwalk, 6 forgot No Walking on the dunes is still in effect. The answer is simple, launch your drone from the parking lot, attach a bottle of Rex and a few Rex glasses fly the drone over the boardwalk and dunes, land it on the beach and you are now legal, and the eagle eye nor the beach patrol can say a word! The moral, is very simple… Ones morals influence their principles, one’s principles are reinforced by one’s principals, one’s principals will never give up their perch!

 

Words of wisdom: Respect your principal’s principles, but do not let the principal’s principles blindly effect your morals.
