Has that breed ever been Best-in-Show before?
There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true.

Ah, thank you. Sometimes the acronyms are not my friends.

Aw, I knew one of them once. I had to comfort him during a thunder storm once -- dog was FREAKING OUT.

Anyone who didn't get a chance to see last night's Daily Show should try and catch the rebroadcast tonight. It is worth it. Tonight's no slouch either.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm not precisely a Gilmore Girls fan, although I watch it.
I really did like tonight's episode. That rocked.

Dudes, Keanu Reeves is 40? That's just fucked up.

I always liked algebra the best, because of the way the left side of the = always ended up the same as the right. I think that's why I liked my introduction to accounting classes, too.
Geometry, OTOH, sucked ass, as did trig. I hate graphs with a passion.

Basic 2x = y algebra is so freaking useful, too, isn't it? I had a great geometry teacher in high school, who my mother ran into recently, and they were talking about the fact that I'm the age now she was then. Oy.
Hmm. Theme of the hour seems to be "Hey! Time flies. WTF?"

According to the Westminster KC's website, in 1974 Ch. Gretchenhof Columbia River went BIS. So, Ch. Kan-Point's VJK Autumn Roses or Carlee is the 2nd.
(Also, I hadn't realized that the first time that they awarded BIS was in 1907, even though the first show was in 1877. Previous to this the Westminster KC helped set up the benched show in Philadelphia that was held as part of the Centennial celebration.)

Geometry and trig were the only types of math I ever had a problem with. I was lucky in my college classes--the prof was the head of the department, and one of the best teachers for those of us who had no intention of becoming math majors. We just wanted to get our two math classes out of the way and move on to our humanities majors courses. But, she took the time when explaining a concept to make sure that everyone in the 80-person class got it. If you had a confused expression on your face (a frequent one for me!), she would pause in the middle of the lecture and work it through for you.
I remember doing proofs in hs, and having the teacher make fun of me when I took 24 steps to get to the same point everyone else reached in five. I never said I was logical, did I?
