Its time to take it down unless it can be restored.

Unless there is some sort of public health hazard, government has no business in destroying private property. Being an 'eye sore' doesn't cut it.

The owners promised to destroy it. Time for the wrecking ball.

Peach Bowl in Atlanta Georgia. The word has been out since they won their game against Arkansas.

Believe it when you see it. Mizzou has a history of getting screwed in things like this. The Athletic department has been e-mailing about reserving tickets for a New Year's Six Bowl.

Phones should be silent and in the backpacks while in school. The public schools are bad enough without students being distracted by yet another screen running Chinese spyware like TicTok. FJB PS there have been 6 shots fired incidents in CoMo in the past month but no news stories.

Moberly school district has a no phone policy already and it works well. Kids are learning more and less distraction. If parents need to get ahold of the kids they can call the office instead of the kids trying to have their parents get them out just cause they don't want to be there .

Too much liberal misinformation in the news on those phones.

As a retired teacher I had students spending great amounts of energy trying to hide their phone activity. A silent phone in a backpack is fine. If a parent has an emergency where they need to contact the student, they should call the main office.

Except for an emergency, there is no reason for them to have their phones. I feel they should have have, but need extreme restrictions and consequences for having them out. They'll be fine without games and social media while they work.
