[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was accosted at a graduation party by a neighbor I hardly knew. But he knew our boys because he had coached them on a youth team and he was almost certainly aware they had gone to private schools.

He went on and on telling me what a fabulous experience his daughter had had at a “W” high school.

I told him that was great and “good for her”. I did not say a word to defend private schools or our decision to send them to one.

He didn’t get the argument he seemed to want at least not from me.

It was all so “transparent”.

At least he got whatever was bothering him off his chest, I guest.

I’m unsure if he sensed what a buffoon I thought he was. Probably not. [/quote]

The long-time sports editor of my hometown newspaper had such a raging hate boner for private schools in his prose. I ran into him at a dinner party and we were kibitzing about nothing in particular — then he became visibly irate when I told him out kids were students at [private day school]. So funny. [/quote]
