MM, the NY Post writer obviously meant that a high percentage of the student body falls within the poverty level. And, yes, Bed-Stuy still has a lot of poverty. Even you can admit that, so stop with the self-righteousness for once.
> That droid phone looks like a 1970’s clunker compared to the iphone.
It’s the Linux of smartphones.
this 5-minute grace plan is the dumbest waste of time.
DH – I don’t understand why anyone needs a blackberry or anything else that keeps you super connected outside of work. Ugh.
You should see my ancient minimally functional cellphone. Mainly used as a clock.
I’m glad the Bedford High School is doing well, too. At last, some good news about a local school.
That said, the Post writer needs to go back to school. What is a “high poverty” school? The school has poverty? You have to reach a certain level of poverty to attend? Bad phrasing, plus the usual reminders that Bed Stuy is supposedly dirt poor, gritty, etc, etc. *Sigh*
I wish the iphone had a real keypad and wasn’t so damn expensive and wasn’t solely linked to a plan with AT&T.
Have the Droid, and its excellent. See side-by-side specs vs. iphone if youre geeky enough (like me). I prefer the squared shape, and even 70’s casio gold button. Some of us don’t want our world just curvy and shiny and cutesy.
Wow – I didn’t even realize that picture was of Wyckoff Starr – they really made that block (half block) look great.
It is wonderful to see that BEDFORD is doing so well. I have two family members who currently attend and I hear great things about it. It’s a very small school and the kids are in school NON STOP!!!
I love it!
