- They have it at our daycare. Never heard of it for a public school. - Dr.Vermin May 25, 14:37 1
  - i think it makes sense, if you won't allow your child to leave on their own, you can't expect the school to provide the 'after school' care for free. -- nm - Andie May 25, 14:39
- how much will they charge? I could use them as a babysitter that I don't even have to give notice to. - parents May 25, 14:36 5

- very reasonable. -- nm - loosilu May 25, 14:31
- I've heard of this kind of thing for after-school programs and day care. - znufrii May 25, 14:29
- Depending on the time the administrative staff normally leave, I can see doing this to offset overtime costs? -- nm - MojaveMeg May 25, 14:28 2
  - my mom would frequently pick me up an hour late from activities. some teacher or parent had to stay with me. - loosilu May 25, 14:32

- Let's see Nic....you can choose the wildly successful series, or the one of the worst comic movies ever. - Will Hunting May 25, 14:16 5
  - but if I can turn around the ghost rider franchise, I'll be respected -- nm - nicky cage May 25, 14:27
  - yeah he does Treasure I think. That's the big paycheck. -- nm - Remlik May 25, 14:21 2
    - That this isn't a slamdunk just tells you how business-dumb the man is. -- nm - Will Hunting May 25, 14:23
    - That's the logical choice, but this is Nic Freakin' Cage ... -- nm - Beryllium May 25, 14:22
  - this. -- nm - Beryllium May 25, 14:16
- whoever wins, we all lose. -- nm - znufrii May 25, 14:14 6
  - Fail. National Treasure is a fun entertaining franchise! -- nm - MDH May 25, 14:17 5
    - more a comment on having to see Nic Cage, than on the quality of the material... :) -- nm - znufrii May 25, 14:27

  - Hey Nubby - eag May 25, 14:09

Wow, I'm reading an NCIS fan board and lots of fans are freaking out that Gibbs is going to leave the show in the current story line. - loosilu May 25, 14:00 2
