valexis

because its so much fun.

Why he gotta be white? You got something against brown knights? and Asians? I see we've learned alot about Miss Valexis today, haven't we.

Oh man I'm normally all about nonviolence, but when I see a $25 ticket with a by-the-way-you-owe-us-an-extra-ten, I start looking for somebody to choke. Whoever the Ticketmaster is needs to get his ass kicked. Then he'll be the . . . Ticket. . . got his ass kicked . . . stupid . . . jerk . . . master. (I've been looking for a chance to use that blackeyed smiley.)

Anyway I'm glad to see that you accept knights of all races, creeds, colors and previous conditions of serivitude. Knights just want to be loved like everybody else. *group knight hug* *clank*

Why are they falling out?

I'm not entirely sure about the falling out. I think it comes down to one always likes the girl but the other always gets her. I assume (and hope) that there's more to it than that, but that's all anyone's telling me. If nothing else, I think the latest girl was the catalyst.

And I can't talk sense into either. One's in denial and the other's a drama king.

Still "bumbling" with your mac?

When I first got mine, I hung out at http://www.macnn.com
Check out the Forums....It is a good place to learn not only what you are doing with software but also a little tidbits about your hardware.

Armchair sounds comfy. I'd better stay away from that sale; I need to get rid of stuff instead of acquiring new stuff.

If your gradebook is a pain, try www.gradekeeper.com. They have a program for $20 that is just like your paper grade book. It's very simple and everything is laid out in a really common-sense way. It calulates everything with whatever weights you want. It's easy to post a new grade sheet every week, so your students always know what their grades are. I'll never use any other program.

I agree with you that we run the risk of damaging our students. Many of them have been traumatized by their previous teachers , and we have to be careful not to do the same. Teaching is definitely an exercise in sensitivity.

if you have a minute, what got you into teaching? how long ya been at it? is it fulfilling? inquiring minds want to know.

Yeah, the freaking thing is a constant thorn. Maybe someone should come up with a tag or something that indicates your level of freakiness. There are wristbands for booze; how about colored wristbands that say "Freak On" or "Freak Off"

Some girl came up to dance with me last night, and she held my hands in the sweetest way. How the hell did hand holding go out of style anyway?

Those are the luckiest, goddamn 6th graders in the world.

No, I teach math at a fashion school. It's very diverse in terms of the subjects taught, and I like my class to be that way too. The more random stuff we do, the more fun we seem to have (at least for me). Geography sounds cool. Whatcha got?

Was it Tom Sawyer or Huck Finn who got his friends to paint his fence for him? Only happens in the South I guess.

Considering I'm far too impatient for cooking a turkey, hens are the way to go, and you can fit 10 on a rack!

Hope you have a great Thanksgiving!

Small noses are cute. Ears are a good part too...

...and chinbones!
