teddykev:
Common now that pic is awesome!

Break a leg with the teaching job.

Just hope you didn't pic up some weird sickness deal from your sis.

Your friendly neighborhood teddykevsmile
daft_student:
Oh, SNAP! (Couldn't resist.)

Congratulations. York's hoods look much better than ours.
strongmad:
I remember that pic, with the cute swirlie. It's like a magic bed!

Also, don't know if I mentioned, but I have MSN messenger (StrongMad) if you ever want to chat.

Hope your teaching hell isn't too bad and you didn't get sick!
sebastien:
darnit! I've been beaten to the obligatory "Oh Snap" joke. Man, here I was thinking I'm so clever and witty. Oh well, I'll step it up a notch.



And it's interesting your choice of the words "Proof". Calls into question the role of the photograph in objective verification. You should check out the Australian film of the same name, if you haven't already.
flaneur:
Aw, thanks. Pesky leaves.

Yeah, me too. She's lovely. A little on the quiet side. Never comes home with me. But lovely... wink
copillia:
are you on MSN right now?
starguitar:
The usual explanation when I disappear is that my computer crashed.
zzshing:
hey, thanks for your (well-hidden) birthday greeting wink ! btw, i think ur picture looks lovely; i remember when i got my grad proofs back, 17 out of 20 were burned immediately, never to see the light of day.
steve_huge:
oh no... i dont think life is to broad a statement... take any aspect of life at all... any single point... in any aspect of life it is far easier to get things wrong than it is to get them right...

a really basic example... 2+2.... that question is so easy to get wrong when you dont know the answer... or even worse the values... think of all the billions and billions of numbers you could give as an answer... but out of those billions of numbers only 1 is right... 1 out of billions and billions...

so if you dont know the value of 2 your screwed... or if you dont know what + means... you're screwed... what if its 2+3... even worse... you need to know the value of 2, the value of 3 and the meaning of + and =...


so if you apply that to life... most situations in life look like this 2+8-&x4-17+83x17... and so on... so you need to know all values and meanings of all symbols.... and once you have that you still have to calculate the correct answer... that one number in billions...

as i said... far easier to get it wrong than right... even when its as simple as 2+2... which it never is...

but i'm not unhappy honbest smile

just the scale of things weighs me down at times smile

hope you're feeling all groovy though wink you certainly look it in that picture wink
