Buffy? I like that. That girl's so hot, she's buffy.

Because books.

I'm sorry, connie. Peace to you and your husband.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

{{{Connie}}} Peace and non-drama to you and hubby's family.

I've used a pretty simple and easy method of disposing of dead birds or mice in the past. Step 1, pick up cat. Step 2, lower head end toward unfortunate vermin. Step 3, wait for grasping mechanism to activate, then deposit the entire package, feline and all, outside.

See? Nothing to it. But you do kind of need the specialized equipment.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

brenda's method works even better if the animal is still somewhat alive and moving. Of course, too much alive can lead to too much drama in feline animal disposal activity. OTOH, watching cats leap into the air to catch birds can be fun....

I am so aggravated with my new instructor for the repeat class.

I asked her if I could submit the final project I did for the class the first time around to her for feedback.

She said she'd have to check the policies and get back to me. Then she said, "I know that if I do it for you, I have to do it for every student."

Um...Isn't that your freaking JOB?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'd rather have roaches than mice -- I don't mind killing roaches.

(unless I'm feeling really maudlin, then I just tell them to walk away)

Peace to the hubby's family, connie.

"I know that if I do it for you, I have to do it for every student."

Um...Isn't that your freaking JOB?

I'm not completely sure what you're asking of her, but I know that when I teach, I won't look over the students' papers in a general way to tell them what they need to improve. I can't read 100 papers twice. If they have a specific question, "I'm not sure how to get the info I need to round out this section," then we can talk about it. But I'm not going to pre-grade every paper. Even if I do, it's a trap because I'm locked into a manditory curve that I have to use -- so I can't tell them what kind of grade they're looking at until I have all the papers in front of me.

I'm not asking for a pre-grade, I'm just asking for pointers on it. It's not really a paper. It's more like a questionnaire on sources that we used for our research paper.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Hey Hec - did you see that Wash is going to Texas? I'm sad for us, but happy for him.

That's kind of optimal in some ways. Wash totally deserves a shot, but I don't think he'd be that compatible with Beane. Apparently Texas front office was wowed by Wash. I'm sure they like a real old school baseball guy. Not that Texeira needs much help with his fielding at first. (Michael Young, though...) I'm pretty sure the A's will go with Geren.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

A Jewish friend posted this on her LJ, I thought that the Buffistas would enjoy it

I was doing a little laundry organizing today and came across a pair of Elder's underwear that she didn't take with her on her summer program. It has Hebrew writing on it and I took it to ask her dad what it says. He frowned at it for a while and said, "Tell her she can't wear this."

"OK, I know it's a bright pink thong but she's 17 years old , and I don't think at this point I'm going to tell her what kind of panties she can wear."

"Well, it's totally ungrammatical. It is supposed to say 'love me' but that is NOT the imperative."
