    Bye Rei!

    There's nothing wrong with how I write them.

    Right now, I write them like this:

    But I might switch to this:

    I don't know, just to try something new.

    Every so often, I get a student that is determined to show me exactly what they are talkign about. They usually produce fantastic diagrams, pictures, charts, etc along with the basic required assignment. Your post reminded me of some of my fav's throughout the years. Thanks for the smile.

    It's 9am and already so freaking humid that my sugar was moist when I scooped it into my coffee. Ugh, another day of puddling.

    Good morning everyone

    Oh cool. Thanks.

    Rob: That's good, because I said it with an accent as I typed it.

    Morning, Blue!

    Huh. Just learned the origin of the "stinking badges" saying. It wasn't as interesting as I'd hoped.

    Yeah, I actually saw a poster this weekend that had the top 100 movie quotes on it, and I was surprised to see that that quote was not, in fact, from Blazing Saddles.

    Yeah, apparently, they took it from something else. The Blazing Saddles version is the most quoted, though

    Oh, I guess I should put a note that that's from xkcd.

    Gone With The Wind is, though, my second favorite movie of all time.

    Hey, quick, whoever's in here...top 5 favorite movies.

    Are you going to lynch me for never having seen Serenity?

    Is it going to make a difference if I haven't seen much of Firefly, either?

    Crap! I forgot about LOTR .... well actually, I find them way too long to watch again.

    Serenity was worth watching Mal. Both the series and the movie were excellent examples of good story telling.

    Xeno - You better get the 2 off of Hellboy!
