My favorite professor also got a Hot rating. It's true, in that sort of distracted professor way. Which I understand some people find hot. *ahem*

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
It's very odd. Looking up people here, I keep thinking "someone thinks he's hot??!!" Whereas when I look at my undergrad school, it's all, "how could they give him a 3.7? He was wonderful!" (And agreeing with one "maybe he was great 30 years ago" comment.)
I'm tempted to look up my Probability & Stats prof, to see if he still tucks his shirts inside his underwear.
At my old school, everyone was so nice! Except to one of my favorite English Professors.
My history professor, who I was just reading about in the alumni newsletter because he was going to be on tv, got the HOT rating.
Looking at the site makes me glad I don't teach (any more). A remarkable number of the comments are accurate and fair, even when not entirely nice. If I were teaching I would feel so naked. I like to imagine that nobody thinks about me ever (no please do not diabuse me of this notion no no laa laa laaaaaa I can't heeear you.)
I looked at his dad and smiled and said, "Imagine if you said to your boss, 'I'm sorry. I'm not going to do any of that work anymore. It's boring.'"
And this is why you're an awesome teacher.

This, above all else.
Okay, and one last -- there were more high quality ratings for people rated difficult than I sometimes give the current looniversity's students credit for. Also, 3 hotness points out of 3 total ratings for the prettiest dude I know, which proves that they ain't blind, yo.
How 'bout that?
Reuters is reporting that special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald said in court filings Friday morning that his investigation into the Plame leak will require proceedings before a new grand jury.
...
Given Fitzgerald's tight lips and ponderous pace, we're not likely to get many answers soon. But we do know one thing -- a new grand jury means more subpoenas, more rumors and more heat on the Bush administration.
I hadn't looked up my ratings. which means I should. But for my old school. Gulp.
I actually probably shouldn't. It's beest not to know.
