CONGRATULATIONS! It's almost beyond belief. I've been around for a long time and I'll have to say the most dedicated and hardest working high school principal I've ever seen in this area, the state, perhaps the nation and, who knows, maybe the entire world, is none other than Cape Girardeau Central High School's Dr. Mike Cowan...

In fact, you will sit and allow Iran to develop nuclear weapons, and when they do, you will say, "Oops." Sorry, Israel, I know you have been our friend for years, but hey, stuff happens, right?
