Natter Five-O: Book 'Em, Danno.
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.
Snort.
All I can really say is that it doesn't surprise me at all. It's the New Mexico State Legislature. Only the Texas State Legislature is weirder.
Actually, the Memorial declaration is sweet. It's basically yay!local astronomy!
Hyphen. When two words are being used together as a single adjective, they should be hyphenated.
In somewhat related news, someone please tell me I'm a good English teacher? I've been dealing with shit from a parent about her daughter's final exam (to which I had the audacity to "give" a C-). Maybe this falls in the "shit I didn't say" category: "Look, lady, your daughter's a sweetheart, but she's lazy her writing is impossible to follow." Sigh. It's been a long morning. I *hate* the end of the term.
I've been looking at job listings. Sigh. While watching Australia's Next Top Model, which is BANANAS -- first they weighed and measured everyone, including with fat calipers (of course, I didn't know what any of it meant, thank to the metric system), and now they're waxing their hoohas! Using NADS!!
NADS is useless. You have to just go and shave that shit off, and then it's like, "why did I buy this?"
Definitely hyphen
My lunch was an onion roll, a piece of provolone cheese, what they called "vegetable spread," but was actually slightly-creamy cole slaw, an orange, and a tomato that I tossed and replaced with a banana (they don't put those in the diet probably due to their tendency to go brown when all sealed up in a plastic container). They call that meal a "Bistro Lunch."
Two of the lunches in the second half of the week are ones I don't like (I nearly gagged when I tried the lasagna roll last time), so I think I'll replace them with soup and veggies from the cafeteria on Friday and Monday.
You're a great teacher, Kristin! It's definitely the student's fault (and the parent[s] should be strictly spoken to for blaming the grade on you and not their daughter's performance--they're not doing her any favors).
It's the New Mexico State Legislature.
An authentically wacky bunch! I still have a print out of a resolution that they passed when I was first working here back in 1993 or '94, in which they resolved a bunch of issues that were straight out of corny Texas jokes.
Thanks for the hyphen heads up, y'all.
world-renowned
It depends on how it's used. It's "world-renowned asshat" vs. "that asshat is world renowned."
