you get a kick out of that? you are a creep. i mean, have your beef farm and all, wherever you want it. and the folks who built the temple there knew what they were getting into. but to get a kick out of the fact that it might cause discomfort for the folks across the street that hold cows holy? you are an a$$.Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:I have only because I briefly lived in the area.

Weston was a dairy cattle farm when I was in high school. My parents' land was adjacent to it. We had beef cattle. We still have the ranch house. I get a kick out of the Hindu Temple that moved in across the road and has to look at our "Beef, it's what's for dinner!" sign.

Because it's in Florida, and that's a really weird and inconsequential claim to fame.
Really, what's a consequential claim to fame?

I am from FLL, now living in DC, and graduated from this high school. It is a great all around school. In fact, from an academic point I would say l learned more here at lead in terms of critical thinking skills than I did in college. My DD will enter HS soon and I am sorry that the DC area offers no comparable school with a tuition - $9K - I can afford. I am frankly shocked by the cost of the Catholic prep schools in this area. It seems they are only for the rich.
