    About this ebook

    If ever you have been frustrated by some bureaucratic regulation -- if you've ever muttered, "That's just plain stupid," about some silly rule -- this book's for you.

    The author takes a curmudgeonly look at society in general and the education community in particular and offers his crusty definitions and commentary. This book may provide a smile that will have everyone wondering what you're up to.
