Next Up for Re-Selection: Mary 'Party's Over Here' Hynes

Hey Yupette,

Guess who's up for re-selection to the County Board next year? Arlington's most awesome Partyer, Mary 'Party's Over Here' Hynes. She was soooo awesome on the School Board, making my kid's school (Abingdon Elementary) into a world class kids' party zone. Party only ended when some dorky parents complained that their kids weren't learning, only partying. Weren't learning what? How to read and write? Who needs reading and writing. My daughter, little Buffy, can't read or write and she's a Barbara Favola Scholar at Marymount University, majoring in in Soccer and minoring in Field Hockey. I'm soooo happy Mary has successfully transitioned - from making dull schools into party schools to making this dull County into an exciting Party Zone.

I woldn't be half the skateborder I am today if it wasn't for Ms. Hines, Ms. Garvey, and Ms Baryd being on the School Board.

Well, SOMEONE has to keep the discussion going for 3 1/2 hours when restaurant seating issues come before the County Board.

Buffington, it would have been even more awesome if Sharon Davis had been elected to the school board. Instead, the party poops elected Dave Foster.

LOL, the live music at Sushi Rock discussion would have lasted for 3 1/2 hours at the last CB meeting but Mary jumped in after the first hour and said - "Check out what so-and-so has done about live music at Whitlows".

Anyone know what happened to that totally awesome Abingdon School Principal?

C.W. said...

Party poos had him re-assigned.

I always wondered why Paulie Ferguson sent his kids to Arlington Traditional rather than to Abingdon.

Why do you think SOLs were mandated?

Susan said...

There was a parents' revolt at Abingdon School and Paulie Ferguson kicked the minority ESL students out. So now it's another Yuppie school, though not as Yuppified as North Arlington's elementary schools.

Paul Ferguson and Libby Garvey are worthless a-holes except when it comes to re-segregating Arlington. Our neighborhood, next to Libby's and Paulie's, had problems with the wastewater system having backups for decades and it's only now that county government got around to installing a higher capacity sewer system.

Less Education..More Socialization said...

People, how much intelligence does it take to sell products made in China? S--- yes my kid is into every sports, recreation, and social event we can find for her to be involved in.

Why did I vote for Sally Baird? Because Miriam Gennari wanted to spend a huge amount of time and money educating rather than socializing students. I'm with Buffington and Sally - socialization and recreation is what the future of the USA is all about. Please, Miriam, take your f-ed up immigrant values back to wherever you came from.

Libraries are useless. All my son needs to be set for life are socialization and recreation skills.

Yorktown Parent said...

No more libraries. No more library hours. We need more all-weather lighted playing fields for soccer, field hockey, lacrosse, and other field sports and activities..

I mean why do I have to spend $200,000 for a 4-year degree from a mediocre college anyway? I can read and write, isn't that enough?

Happy you learned in high school...my kid did not. Thank God Libby Garvey may be leaving the 'non-partisan' school board to run for State Senate.

Walter Tejada is also up for re-selection.

Speaking of employment, anyone know how many federal jobs the tea partiers intend to cut?

N.H. said...

Last I heard they want to cut several hundred thousand.

Does anyone realize that the population of Virginia grew by about 900,000 since 2000 and the population of the USA grew by another 30 million?

Anonymous said...

Yes. And immigration was 10+ million since 2000 and number of jobs outsourced at least 10 million. Wonder why the unemployment rate has stayed over 9 percent?

Have you ever seen a neocon who gave a rat's a-- about anything other than neocon "Patriot' values: export good jobs to the third world, import poor people from the third world, spending trillions fighting war after war in the third world?

How many lighted synthetic-turf $1 million soccer fields will Nada Tejada be able to build for his amigos if the tea partiers slash the federal budget?

W.K. said...

Don't matter, if there's a budget crunch and he needs to build a couple soccer fields he'll just close two branch libraries.
