*So* much more with the sense with context.
Ooops. Sorry.
It's interesting having a deaf instructor for the sign language class. It's an intensive class -- 5 hours a day, 5 days a week, for two weeks -- and it's weird to be spending that much time with a person and not have the means to communicate much to him beyond basic biographical information, like my name and where I'm from and what I study. (We've also spend a good while learning how to give directions in sign, which is sort of fun: none of this "Go to the end of the hallway and turn right" stuff -- just make the sign for "hallway," point way far out in the distance while squinting, and point to the right.)
Anyone else wishing that order had to be done by phone instead of on line?
In grad school I always used to send a freshman to get orders like this. In person. At Walgreens. On a school Purchase Order.

Kissinger was right. Power is sexy.

OK, ND, what are the condoms for, their stretchability or their ability to contain, well, stuff?
Perhaps to keep electronic thingies dry?
It is their ability to protect electronics from sweaty actors that adds condoms to the list.
Protection from sweaty actors is a good reason for condoms in general. IJS.

Hah! See, that made me crazy (though I was taking it 5 hours a day ONCE a week, so that made it seem like we were on that unit FOREVER)--I was like "Damnit, i want to be able to TALK to people, and not just give them directions!!" Plus another semester was a whole thing about describing a room, and explaining where the couch was, and where the table was, etc, which...how often do you find yourself needing to do that? And then there was a whole unit on nationalities, which was interesting in the "so the sign for Chinese USED to be this, which is really offensive, so now it's this instead...", but again...I felt like I took three semesters of sign before I could actually have any sort of conversation at all.
