... the name of Bart's school. The school board although initially unaware of the name's television counterpart, held firm. Greenwood now has an elementary school named "Springfield."

Mom is at home to make sure the dishes are put away after the meal by everyone; dish duty is passed along each night. The tray is simply handed over to pairs of hands waiting to clean the dishes at college. Nutrition is a factor at home, and Mom creates meals with that in mind. A new food group sprang to life upon entering a residence hall: Mountain Dew, Doritos, Ben & Jerry's, Ho-Ho! 's, Oreos, the list could go on and on. Privacy is always available at home; there is somewhere to read, write, listen to music, or to just rest. Dorm life is a harsh r ...

It is vital to national security that some information be kept from the public , or even that in certain cases the public be purposefully deceived with certain information.
