Like many of you, I am a yes on this. Do you know how much time I would save if I could beam into schools instead of having to drive!

Just for Fun

Yesterday on Twitter, I saw a poll question asking which weekend day was better. That got me thinking of a poll question for this week. Which day of the week is the best?
