What's St. Trinians?

Also, why Miss? Why not Teacher which for my kids who are spanish speakers makes more sense since they address all teachers as Maestra or Maestro.

Also, I'm digging the fact that in my class, kids' primary languages range from Farsi to Urdu to Tagolog to Cambodian to Arabic to Armenian to Spanish.

It's kinda cool.

I've had kids who don't know my name call me "Miss." I figure it's a sign of being Raised Right. But I'm guessing you had your name written on the board behind you, so I dunno.

Ah, Farsi. My old nemesis.

Hello, my name is Kathy, and I am an Alton Brown Whore.

Well, the first thing I did was cook Thanksgiving dinner according almost entirely to Alton's special episode last November. One thing he had that I didn't was his probe thermometer. Imagine, a thermometer you can stick in the bird and there's a digital readout outside of the oven! With a timer built in! What an invention! So I ran out to buy one. And... some other implements he suggested. Just a couple...

A balloon whisk. A sauce whisk. A set of really strong measuring cups (they jingle just like he said they should). A saucier for the sauce whisk. A kitchenaid mixer - OK, that was a gift, but I asked for it – I asked for an appliance for Christmas! And I was so excited when I received it! I still thank my mother-in-law for this gift! Oh God, my husband was right, I am sick!

I must try the rhubarb-peach cobbler, next...

But I'm guessing you had your name written on the board behind you, so I dunno.

Yes. That's precisely it. The kids who aren't in my class calling me Miss? I get that. But Louis who is in my homeroom and in my 6th period class and who got lost and spent some extra time with me 3rd period? He has no reason to resort to Miss.

OK, on the prison show I did NOT see that coming. Suh-weet.

From somebody posting on the NOLA boards:

**********

O.k., just was able to determine the following from the aerial shots:

Massive flooding in the Lakefront-area, with the water roof deep. Images on WDSU of a Coast Card rescue of someone from a roof-top via Helicopter. Numerous roofs are gone.

The area around Paris Ave. & Robert E. Lee is totally flooded, water up to the rooftops, probably a good 7 feet deep. Also Looks like Gentilly is almost totally under water.

Looks like a good bit of the UNO campus is under water towards the London Avenue Canal. In fact, it looks like the area between Bayour St. John and the London Ave. Canal, from Robert E. Lee to the lake, is totally flooded.

City Park is flooded, almost 3/4 of it now looks like a swamp. The golf course is totally submerged to Marrconi.

The Yacht basin at West End is clogged with sunken boats.. looks like the wind coming from the North on the West side of the storm stacked the boats up in a mass pile, and it looked very much like the Southern Yacht Club is on fire, but on the side facing west end point.

This is hard to comprehend....

No, my nemeses are original and specific, and constitute Farsi, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and the Girl Scouts of America.

Poor Girl Scouts. What have they ever done to you?
