There is a poem` which Nanna likes; the first verse of it goes:
Tell me not in mournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream,
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem.
There is a poem verse^ which I like (and which I made up!)*; it goes:
School me not in mournful classrooms,
School is but an empty boredom,
For the student is bored and slumbers,
And education is not what it seems.
This poem is designed for home/unschoolers, but may be enjoyed by anyone, no matter what type of education has been fated upon you.
However, for home/unschoolers, and those thinking of home/unschooling, there are a few websites I would like to recommend:

Again, the above websites may be enjoyed by anyone, no matter what type of education has been fated upon you.
DISCLAIMER: Schools are not all like that; your mileage will probably vary.

^So far I only have one verse, but if I manage another verse, I will put it here.
*Nanna did help me with the last line, but the rest I did myself.
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2012 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
The new Boeing 787 Dreamliner can carry about 250 passengers. This blog was viewed about 1,100 times in 2012. If it were a Dreamliner, it would take about 4 trips to carry that many people.

Do it by canceling out: Turn ‘of’ into ‘×’(times symbol) : × = × 1. Ignore the right side of the equation for now, then do whatever canceling out you can, on the rest. So what can you cancel out? Well, how about the 3s? Cross them out, then you’re left with a 2 on top, and a 4 on the bottom, making 
. Since is equal to , we now have = × 1. We don’t really need the ×1, so we remove it and get(drumroll please): = , which is quite an obvious sentence, provided you know what ‘=’ means!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do it with pictures! Since it’s a bit difficult to draw pictures on a computer*, you might want to watch this video:
*The fractions were hard enough! I had to search Wikipedia for ‘Fractions’ and scroll down ALL that text in search of , , , and , and they might not have even been there!! (Thank goodness they were there!!)
The old joke was not that good. So here is a new one. (Note that the old one was original, while this new one is not. Except the end bit, which our source (Nanna) made up. But that is still not fully original.) The joke is a conversation between a teacher and a student:
Teacher: How many Pancha* Pandavas were there (not counting Karna)?
Student: (thinks) Hmm… I think I will try to answer this cleverly.
Student: Like the legs of a cot, they are 3 in number. (Holds up 2 fingers, writes a 1 on the blackboard)
THE END BIT:
Teacher: And your marks are 0! (writes a 0** on the blackboard)
*Pancha means 5 **She could even write - 1!
Hi there! K again. Looks like another movie review, so we better get started. [for those of you who may be thinking, "Another movie review? Was there one before this?" you obviously haven't read Kahaani. So what are you waiting for? Go read it! (After you finish reading this post of course!!)] Well, to business. This movie is the come-back film of an actress called ‘Sridevi’ and it’s all about an Indian woman learning English. There are NO violent scenes, except where Sagar, the little boy, gets hit with a ball (by accident) and gets hurt, but that’s not VIOLENT violent, if you know what I mean. Anyway, it’s short. But there are some kind of heart-breaking scenes, like the café scene (the very first one. There’s another one which is a much much much more triumphant moment, the ‘perfect order’ scene.) The woman, Sashi, gets a bit fed up, because English is starting to take over India a bit, like at the PTA meeting with Sapna, her daughter. Then things get worse when they have to go to New York for a wedding. A whole CITY that speaks mainly English! Yikes! Luckily, the wedding was Indian. (An relative of theirs was marrying an American.) Sashi sees an ad to learn English in 4 weeks, which happens to be about the same amount of time that she is staying there…
A set in which there is nothing, i.e. a philosophical post on this blog was a null set, before this post. Before Kalpana Chawla, an Indian Woman Astronaut was a null set.
What if there were no null sets? What if there was something in every category possible? Well, then a null set would be a null set! ∴* It is impossible to have no null sets.
What if there were no null sets? What if there was something in every category possible? Well, then a null set would be a null set! But then there would be a null set, so there would be something in every category possible! But then a null set would be a null set! So then a null set would be a null set again…
And it keeps repeating like that forever!!!!!
∴* It is impossible to have no null sets for more than half of the time!
