Boy, 2 great visuals from the same movie. Of course, PB has many hundreds of classic lines or moments. Like Holy Grail, Life of Brian (almost anything from the Monty Python group), Airplane, Ground Hog Day, many of the Mel Brooks classics. Ah, they doont make movies like they used to.
No, but at 55 you can begin collecting your pension if you have over 10,000 posts here and no infractions. You need to give 60 days notice before you retiree here or your pension is subject to being penalized.
Yes, it's possible... But some months ago I came back! With a new account (I lost old password), more active and less lurker... I was Piasintein: http://forums.toucharcade.com/member.php?u=40711
My parents were lucky ones who entered the NYC School system before 1972. They receive Tier 1 pensions which is basically equal to 80% of their final salary . They retired at 56, 55. Anybody who began teaching after '72 has a plan that's not as good, and if you started teaching in the past few years, the pension sucks. The lack of creativity teachers are currently able to share with their students has gone down the toilet. There is state test after state test, the lesson plans that have to be turned in are quite large, and there is little time for projects or celebrating what's important in life. Ok off on another tangent there...
